Team News

Arouca
Rio Ave
  • Either Quaresma or Weverson will replace Milovanov at the left-hand side of the defense.
  • Cristo González netted a brace against Boavista FC, meaning that he scored three times in his last couple of appearences. Expect him to be confident here.
  • Hernâni made an impact coming from the bench and could replace Joca at Starting XI.
  • Other than that, Luís Freire should name the same squad that faced Estrela last time out.

Prediction

  • FC Arouca got a fantastic 4-0 win over Boavista FC last time around, ending a 5-match winning drought across all competitions. However, they remain rooted to the bottom of the table and will look to get out of the dropout zone with another victory.
  • Rio Ave FC were held to a 1-1 draw by Estrela on their return to league action. The 'Vilacondenses' are on a 3-match unbeaten run, but that should not make them too comfortable as they're dangerously close to the bottom three.
  • Playing at home and enjoying the new manager bounce effect, FC Arouca are expected to get all the spoils.
