Saturday's Primeira Liga predictions including Porto vs. Famalicao

Guimaraes vs. Farense (Saturday, 3.30pm)

Seeking to make it six Primeira Liga wins on the bounce, Europe-chasing Vitoria de Guimaraes play host to SC Farense at the Estadio Dom Afonso Henriques on Saturday.

Having suffered a 2-1 defeat in December's reverse fixture, the visitors will head into the weekend looking to get one over Os Vimaranenses and pick up consecutive wins for the first time since November.

We say: Vitoria de Guimaraes 2-0 SC Farense

Vitoria de Guimaraes have hit their stride at the business end of the season and will head into the weekend with sky-high confidence. Pacheco's men take on a Farense side who have struggled to get going on the road and we see them coming away with all three points once again.

Porto vs. Famalicao (Saturday, 6.00pm)

Porto will be looking to make it 10 consecutive victories against Famalicao when the two sides go head to head at the Estadio do Dragao in round 29 of the Primeira Liga on Saturday.

While a run of two consecutive defeats has threatened to derail the hosts' quest for European football, the Vila Nova head into the weekend looking to make it three wins on the trot for the first time since April 2023.

We say: Porto 3-1 Famalicao

Reeling from their disappointing display against Guimaraes, Porto will head into the weekend looking to stop the rot and return to winning ways. Given the gulf in quality between the two sides and recent results in this fixture, we are tipping Porto to come away with all three points in front of their home supporters.

Estoril vs. Braga (Saturday, 8.30pm)

Aiming to move into third place in the Primeira Liga standings, Braga journey to the Estadio Antonio Coimbra da Mota to take on Estoril Praia on Saturday.

A run of seven points from the last nine available has seen the Canarinhos surge from the doldrums and they will head into the weekend looking to pull six points clear of the relegation zone.

We say: Estoril Praia 1-2 Braga

With the season now at its business end, both Estoril Praia and Braga know they must avoid any further slip-ups in their final six games. Jorge's men have enjoyed the better of this fixture, and while we expect Estoril to put up a fight, they should have enough firepower to see off the hosts.
