Boavista vs Arouca: Portuguese Championship Match Prediction

Current form

Before the start of the season, Boavista was not among the obvious candidates for relegation, but at the same time, it could hardly count on anything more than maintaining its place in the Primeira Liga. However, in the first round, the "chessmen" frankly fail and currently occupy the penultimate place in the table with 12 points. Before the situation becomes critical, Cristiano Bacca team is only one point behind the saving 15th place and has a chance to escape from the bottom today. Having lost 0:4 to Porto in the derby in the last round, Boavista suffered its eighth defeat of the season.

Disqualifications and injuries

Abascal is disqualified. Goncalves and Pires are injured.

Interesting trends for betting

• Boavista have not won in their last six matches – three wins and three losses

Probable line-up: Cesar - Gomes, Miguel, Ferreira, Dabo - Perez, Vukotic, Agra, Reizinho, Onyemaechi - Bozenik.

Current form

"Arouca" was also not considered a candidate for relegation before the start of the season, but, like its opponent today, it has completely failed the first round. With 12 points, Vasco Seabra team is at the bottom of the standings, but is not yet in a hopeless situation - it lacks only one point to reach 15th place Nacional. In the last round, "Arouca" drew 1:1 at home with "Gil Vicente", managing to recoup with great difficulty at the end of the match, but such a result did not help to leave the last place in the standings.

Disqualifications and injuries

Busquets, Moreira and Kouassi are injured.

Interesting trends for betting

• Arouca have suffered four defeats in their last six matches
• Arouca have scored in their last four matches

Estimated lineup: Mantle - Weverson, Fontan, Lamba, Thiago - Pedro, Lum, Trezza, Silla, Jason - Morozov.
