Prediction: 1-1
Estoril
Following a 1-0 loss to AVS, Rio Ave will look to return to winning ways in Primera Division when they take on Estoril on Matchday 6. Os Rioavistas aim to keep their 100% record at home intact and they are surely capable of matching Estoril at their Estadio do Rio Ave. Patrick William is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Os Canarinhos, on the other hand, have been impressive at the back of late, with the team eyeing their fourth consecutive clean sheet in the national championship. As Estoril are likely to rely on their rock-solid defence in Saturday’s encounter, we are tempted to place our bets on under 2.5 goals. Barring any fresh injury worries, Ian Cathro is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Nacional in their last league fixture.
Highlighted Team (Rio Ave):
Nicknamed Rio Grande, Rio Ave are a Portuguese club that compete in Primeira Liga. Rio Ave were founded back in 1939 and they welcome their rivals at Estadio dos Arcos, the stadium which can hold up to 12,815 people.
The team’s home shirt is green with white stripes, whilst the colour of their shorts is green. Rio Ave wear white shirts and white shorts when playing on the travels. The club’s biggest success came in the 2014/2015 season when they represented Portugal in the Europa League group stages. Rio Ave finished the process in the last position in Group J, but they did well to record their first ever win in the competition, with the team beating Danish club Aalborg 2-0 at their Estadio do Rio Ave Futebol Clube.
Former Real Madrid full-back Fabio Coentrao is considered one of the club’s most notable footballers. Manchester City first-choice goalkeeper Ederson played for Rio Ave in the past as well.
