Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-0
Nacional
Guimaraes play host to Nacional at their Estadio D. Afonso Henriques on day 15 of the new Primeira Liga campaign. Guimaraes aim to move closer to the Conference League berth and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Monday’s clash. The likes of Borevkovic, Gaspar, Oliveira, and Ramirez should miss out with injuries for the home team.
Nacional, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Moreirense. Los Alvinegros are tough to beat at home, but given their difficulties on the road, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. With no fresh injury worries to report, Tiago Margarido is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Moreirense at the weekend. Forward Ruben Macedo remains in the recovery room for the visiting side.
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.
