Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Despite beating Sporting Braga 1-0 at the weekend, Desportivo Aves remained in the ultimate position in the Primeira Liga standings. Nuno Manta Santos’ men, though, did well to put an end to their ten-game losing run in the national championship, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence. Desportivo Aves aim to move away from the relegation zone as soon as possible, but beating Vitoria Setubal on the road is easier said than done.
Julio Velazquez’ troops proved their worth in a 3-2 win at Pacos de Ferreira, and they are surely capable of matching the rock-bottom side at home ground. Considering that Setubal have been impressive at the back on home soil this season, we believe that home win should be considered. When the two teams met at Estadio do Bonfim last season Vitoria Setubal recorded a 2-0 win over Desportivo Aves.
