Prediction: 1-0
Boavista
Estadio D. Afonso Henriques will host Friday’s football game between Vitoria Guimaraes and Boavista. Guimaraes have been struggling to find their best form of late, with the team failing to win the previous five league fixtures. Joao Henriques’ troops are desperate to keep their Europa League hopes alive, and this seem to be the perfect opportunity for them to get back on course in the Portuguese top flight. Vitoria Guimaraes are after their fifth home win of the season, but they will have to prove their worth on the field.
Jhonatan has been tested positive for coronavirus, while both Amoah and Mascarenhas are sidelined through injuries. The Black and Whites, on the other hand, recorded a hard-fought 1-0 win over Moreirense in their last league match, with the team putting an end to their three-game winless run. Anyhow, Guimaraes want this win more than Boavista, and we predict that the hosts are going to pick up vital three points from the match. Reisinho should be the only absentee in the away team.
