Porto is in a mini crisis and will try to get back on track when they visit Rio Ave. "The Dragons" have not been successful in three consecutive matches in the Primeira Liga, and the draw against Santa Clara in the last round further intensified the tension. At the same time, Rio Ave is a stable host and will try to get the most out of this match.
Expectations for a contested matchThe hosts won their last match against Farense and will be motivated to continue with good results at home. Since the beginning of the season, Rio Ave has only one loss at home, often managing to make it difficult for more famous opponents. Porto traditionally dominates in direct clashes, but this time it will not be easy, especially given their fluctuating form.
Handicap bet: home team +1.5Rio Ave is a tough opponent at home and rarely loses by a large margin. At the same time, Porto is facing difficulties and does not seem to be in optimal form. I expect the hosts to put up a serious resistance and not allow a heavy defeat.
