Team News

Gil Vicente
Rio Ave
  • Sithole remains the only injury concern for the hosts.
  • Fujimoto could start infield if Bruno Pinheiro opts for a more offensive approach.
  • Clayton will be full of beans after netting a decisive brace last time out.
  • Martim Neto is back available after serving a match ban and will boost Petit' options at the visitors' engine room.

Prediction

  • Despite picking up points away from home, Gil Vicente will regret not beating Arouca last time out. After all, the Gilistas were leading 1-0 until stoppage time due to fog and, when it returned, they ended up conceding the equalizer. Nonetheless, they're on a good run of form, enjoying an unbeaten run of 4 games.
  • Rio Ave beat Nacional in their last game of 2024 and achieved the remarkable feat of not losing a single home game during that year. This could give Petit's men the confidence to get two wins in a row for the first time this season.
  • The visitors didn't lost in any of the last four games between the two side, but that streak could come to an end on Monday given the home factor and Gil Vicente's good form.
