Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Rio Ave
Match Time & Date:
28/04/2023
21:15
Prediction: 0-1
Arouca
Rio Ave will be aiming to put an end to their four-game winless run when they face Arouca on Matchday 30. Rio Ave did well to secure the Primeira Liga survival, and, as a result, they have little to play for in the season finale. Leonardo Ruiz is banned for the match following his sending-off in a 3-2 loss to Boavista, while fellow midfielder Joca remains in the recovery room.
Armando Evangelista’s troops, on the other hand, moved one step closer to booking their spot in the Conference League thanks to a 1-0 win over Vizela. Arouca want this triumph more than Rio Ave and we predict that the visitors are going to pick up all three points from Friday’s encounter. Vitinho is out of contention with injury, while Oday Dabbagh faces race against the clock to be fit for the match.
