Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Estadio D. Afonso Henriques will host Friday’s football game between Vitoria Guimaraes and Moreirense. Guimaraes do not seem to be at their sharpest, with the team suffering seven defeats in the previous eight league fixtures. The hosts have been struggling in front of goal of late, and it no surprise the odds for away win have been dropping. Ghana international Joseph Amoah remains on the sidelines through injury.
Moreirense, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their three-game winless run in the Portuguese top flight. Os verdes e brancos proved their worth in a 1-1 draw with title-chasing Porto, and we are positive that they will grab something from Friday’s clash as well. A close game is on the cards at Estadio D. Afonso Henriques, and we believe that punters can find value in betting on draw.
