Prediction: 1-0
Estrela
Sunday’s football game between Vitoria Guimaraes and Estrela will bring down the curtain on day 18 of the 2023/2024 Primeira Division campaign. Guimaraes have been producing fine performances at the start of 2024, with the team sharing the spoils with Braga on the road, while beating Arouca at home. As Alvaro Pacheco has no fresh injury worries, home win should definitely be considered.
Os Tricolores, on the other hand, failed to win the previous four league matches and seeing that Guimaraes are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we predict that Sergio Vieira’s men are going to return to Amadora with their hands empty. Kwenzokuhle Shinga limped off with injury in a 1-1 draw with Gil Vicente, with Gustavo Henrique likely to step up. You should bear in mind that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of the previous four meetings between the two sides in all competitions.
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.
