Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
After suffering a heavy 5-1 loss at Porto, Farense will be looking to keep their survival hopes alive when they take on Tondela on Matchday 33. Farense failed to win the previous four league fixtures, but Saturday’s game could be the turning point for the relegation strugglers. Even though midfielder Bilel Aouacheria is sidelined through suspension, home win should be considered as the hosts want this win more than the visitors.
Tondela are stuck in the middle of the standings, with the team heading into the penultimate game of the season with the lack of motivation. Considering that the visitors have nothing to play for in Saturday’s clash, we predict that Farense are going to pick up vital three points in their battle for survival. Both Bebeto and Arcanjo are pushing for a start, with Almeida and Grau likely to drop to the bench.
