Prediction: 0-0
Famalicao
Rio Ave will be aiming to bounce back from a massive 4-0 loss to Braga when they take on Famalicao in the La Liga round 9. Os Rioavistas have been producing fine displays at home this season and they are surely capable of making life difficult for Famalicao. Albania goalkeeper Anxhelo Sina is sidelined with injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.
Meanwhile, Os Azuis e Brancos have drawn each of their last three league matches. As Rio Ave are tough to beat at home, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. In their last meeting at the venue the two sides played out a 1-1 draw and yet another share of spoils is on the horizon. Armando Evangelista should have a full squad to choose from for Friday’s game.
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.
