Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Vizela and Boavista face each other at Estadio do Vizela in the closing match of the Primeira Liga round 28. Vizela are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win, and they are surely capable of matching Boavista in front of home fans. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of Monday’s football match.
The Black and Whites, on the other hand, have already suffered nine defeats on the road this term, and given Vizela’s signs of improvement, we do not believe that Petit’s troops are going to grab something from the match. To make things even worse for the visiting team, defender Rodrigo Abascal misses out through suspension. Gambia forward Yusupha Njie is widely expected to lead the line for the visitors. You should know that Boavista experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-2 loss to Maritimo in their last away game.
Highlighted Team (Boavista):
Founded on August 1, 1903, Boavista are a Portuguese club that welcome their rivals at Estadio do Bessa. The capacity of the venue is 28,263 and it was built back in 1911. As Panteras (The Panthers) are well known for their black and white shirts and white is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Famous Fellow city club Porto are considered Boavista’s main rivals and the two teams face each other in O Derby da Invicta and there have always been fireworks in clashes between the two local rivals. A Panteras did well to win their first and only Primeira Liga trophy in the 2000/2001 season, with the team finishing the campaign only one point clear of Porto.
Boavista have five Taca de Portugal trophies (1974/75, 1975/76, 1978/79, 1991/92, 1996/97), with the team winning Supertaca de Portugal three times (1979, 1992, 1997). Jose Bosingwa, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Nuno Gomes are the notable footballers who played for Boavista in the past, to name just a few.
