Team News

Famalicao
Rio Ave
  • Aguirregabiria should start at the right-hand side of the defense as Nathan serves a match ban due to an accumulation of bookings.
  • Sorriso had an oustanding debut as he scored a lovely goal against SC Farense. Expect him to start out wide once again.
  • Aziz scored his first goal after returning to the club and will push for a start upfront.
  • Emmanuel Boateng is back available and will probably relegate Embaló to the bench.

Prediction

  • A late goal from SC Farense kept FC Famalicão bringing all three points home last time around despite their solid defensive performance. They're currently facing a 3-match winning drought that they will look to end on Saturday.
  • Rio Ave FC extended their good run of form as they've defeated Casa Pia AC one week after upseting FC Porto at Estádio do Dragão. In both occasions they were able to keep a clean sheet, reflecting their defensive cohesion.
  • Both sides have been very solid at the back, which could give us a low scoring affair. In fact, a scoreless draw wouldn't be much of a surprise.
