Prediction: 1-1
Guimaraes
Gil Vicente and Vitoria Guimaraes take on each other at Estadio Cidade de Barcelos in what is expected to be a close Primeira Liga encounter. Os Galos aim to build on a 2-0 win over Portimonense, but they face a tough challenge against Alvaro Pacheco’s troops. The good news for the hosts is that Gabriel Pereira is back from suspension, while Depu is still on international duty. The visitors, on the other hand, look unstoppable at the moment, with the team winning each of their last three game in all competitions.
Anyhow, the share of spoils is on the horizon at “Cidade de Barcelos” as Gil Vicente have been in a fine form of late. As there are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Barcelos, Alvaro Pacheco is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Estrela 3-0 at the weekend.
Highlighted Team (Guimaraes):
Vitoria Guimaraes have always been in the shadow of famous Portuguese sides Porto, Benfica and Sporting, but over the years they have established themselves as a top-table side in the Primeira Liga. Os Vimaranenses did well to win Taca de Portugal in the 2012/2013 season, wi the team beating Benfica in the final of the domestic cup.
Vitoria Guimaraes finished the 2016/2017 Primeira Liga campaign in fourth place in the standings and, as a result, they booked their place in the Europa League qualifiers. The Portuguese side will face the likes of Salzburg, Konyaspor and Olympic Marseille in Group I and they are seen as underdogs in their group. Vitoria Guimaraes welcome their rivals at Estadio D. Alfonso Henriques and the venue can hold up to 30.000 spectators.
Os Vimaranenses play their home games in white shirts and white shorts, whilst they wear black when playing on the road. Their neighbours Braga are considered Guimaraes’ fiercest rivals and the two teams face each other in the derby of Minho Province.
