Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Arouca vs. Rio Ave

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Primeira Liga fixtures, including Arouca vs. Rio Ave.


Estrela Amadora vs. Boavista (Sunday, 3.30pm)

Two sides who could do well with a win go head to head in round 13 of the Primeira Liga as Estrela Amadora play host to Boavista at the Estadio Jose Gomes on Sunday.

Sergio Vieira's men head into the weekend without a win in their last four outings across all competitions while the visitors will be looking to snap their run of six consecutive defeats.

We say: Estrela Amadora 2-1 Boavista


Despite their disappointing performance, Last weekend's draw saw Estrela end a three-game losing streak and they will head into Sunday's tie looking to build on that result. The Tricolores take on an out-of-sorts Boavista side and we are backing them to come away with all three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Arouca vs. Rio Ave (Sunday, 6.00pm)

Two sides separated by a single point at the bottom of the Primeira Liga table will do battle at the Estadio Municipal de Arouca on Sunday, as Arouca welcome Rio Ave.

The visitors only lead the bottom three on goal difference, while their hosts remain at the foot of the division but within touching distance of their opponents thanks to a victory last time out.

We say: Arouca 2-1 Rio Ave


Both teams will head into the weekend with a degree of confidence and the need for a result against a relegation rival, and we anticipate a tight contest.

The appointment of Daniel Sousa clearly had a positive effect on Arouca as they dished out a 4-0 beating in their first game under the new boss last weekend, and we fancy them to make it two in a row and come out on top on home turf.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Estoril vs. Chaves (Sunday, 8.30pm)

Estoril Praia will welcome Chaves to the Estadio Antonio Coimbra da Mota on Sunday for a crucial contest at the bottom end of the Primeira Liga table.

After 12 rounds of league games, the two sides are tied on 10 points, with the hosts sat 14th and the visitors in the relegation playoff place due to an inferior goal difference.

We say: Estoril Praia 2-1 Chaves


We anticipate a tight and entertaining encounter at the Estadio Antonio Coimbra da Mota, given the stakes at the bottom end of the Primeira Liga table with crucial ground to be gained in the fight to move clear of the drop zone.

While Chaves will certainly cause them problems going forward, Estoril Praia do have enough to prevail on home turf, and we fancy them to take all three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
