Betting on Rio Ave
Rio Ave has managed to rack up points in 19 out of 31 Primeira Liga matchdays, recording 10 victories and 9 draws. Even if it has been a fairly decent season for the team, the other participants have been performing at an almost perfect pace, leaving Rio Ave in the lower half of the standings.
So far, the team has accumulated 39 points and is tied with Vizela, but a win could mean climbing up to four places in the standings.
Its most significant recent match, regarding its upcoming encounter against Vitória Guimarães, was their 1-0 victory over Arouca two fixtures ago. Arouca is currently placed one spot above Vitória and has secured more wins and goals, giving the home team a great chance of clinching another win against a similar opponent while playing on its own field.
Possible lineup (3-3-4): Jhonatan; Aderllan Santos, Patrick William, Miguel Nóbrega; Costinha, Amine Oudrhiri, Gonçalo Rodrigues; Ukra, Hernâni, Leonardo Ruiz, Paulo Vitor.
Betting on Vitória Guimarães
Vitória Guimarães has played 15 away matches, and has managed to snatch points in almost half of them. The team has won five games, drawn two, and lost eight. Furthermore, its average goals scored when playing away is much lower than when playing at home (1), and it concedes more goals (1.6) compared to its overall performance.
The teams that are close to Rio Ave in the standings are Portimonense and Vizela, and Vitória has managed to defeat both of them in recent rounds of the Primeira Liga. This team won against Portimonense 1-0, and against Vizela 3-0, both at home. These results undoubtedly demonstrate the dominance of this team over such opponents, and its only weakness may be playing away.
Possible lineup (3-4-3): Bruno Varela; Mamadou Tounkara, Ibrahima Bamba, Mikel Villanueva; Miguel Maga, Tiago Silva, Tomás Händel, Afonso Freitas; Jota Silva, Michael Johnston, André Silva.
JefeBet Prediction
The Rio Ave vs Vitoria Guimaraes match has the visiting team as a clear favorite to win the match because of the number of wins it has attained and because it is occupying sixth place in the standings. However, although Rio Ave has suffered fewer defeats in recent matches, Vitória has a significant track record of victories against similar teams. Therefore, at JefeBet, we recommend betting on the home team.
Prediction: Moneyline Rio Ave and Over (RIO 2-1 VIT)
