Prediction: 0-1
Rio Ave
Estadio do Vizela will host Saturday’s football game between Vizela and Rio Ave. The rock-bottom side face a must-win situation against Rio Ave as they are eight points behind the safe zone and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Rio Ave.
Os Rioavistas, on the other hand, are undefeated in the previous eight league matches. The visitors are only three points clear of the relegation zone, meaning that this game is of big importance for them. Given Vizela’s poor form in the Portuguese top flight and shaky defence, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on Luis Freire’s troops. As for the visiting side, both Amine and Andre Pereira have been struggling with injuries of late.
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.
