Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Gil Vicente vs. Porto

Vizela vs. Estoril (Sunday, 3.30pm)

Still licking their wounds from a 6-1 mauling at the hands of Benfica, Vizela go head to head with Estoril Praia in round 23 of the Portuguese Primeira Liga on Sunday.

The Canarinhos are unbeaten in each of their last four visits to the Estadio do FC Vizela and will head into the weekend looking to extend this three-year spell.

We say: Vizela 1-1 Estoril Praia

Vizela and Estoril Praia find themselves at the wrong end of the table and we expect them to go all out in search of all three points. However, we predict that both sides will cancel out each other's efforts and settle for a share of the spoils.

Gil Vicente vs. Porto (Sunday, 6.00pm)

Fresh off the back of a stunning Champions League victory over Arsenal, Porto journey to the Estadio Cidade de Barcelos to take on Gil Vicente in round 23 of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.

Vitor Campelos's men have lost each of their last four home games against the Dragoes since a 2-1 win in August 2019 and will be looking to end this poor run this weekend.

We say: Gil Vicente 1-3 Porto

While Gil Vicente will be looking to pick up where they left off against Estoril, they face a bogey Porto side whom they have failed to get the better of in 18 of their last 20 meetings. Given the gulf in class and quality and quality between the two teams, we are backing the visitors to come away with all three points.

Benfica vs. Portimonense (Sunday, 6.00pm)

Having booked their spot in the round of 16 of the Europa League in midweek, Benfica return to action in the Portuguese Primeira Liga with a home clash against Portimonense on Sunday.

The Alvinegros head into the weekend on a run of four back-to-back defeats against the home side and will journey to the Estadio da Luz looking to end this two-year spell.

We say: Benfica 3-0 Portimonense

Benfica and Portimonense have had a contrasting campaign, with the Alvinegros scrambling for points at the bottom end of the table. Both form and history are on Benfica's side this weekend and we are backing them to claim all three points unscathed.

Rio Ave vs. Sporting Lisbon (Sunday, 8.30pm)

Sporting Lisbon will be looking to extend their incredible form in the Primeira Liga when they head North to Vila do Conde to take on Rio Ave on Sunday evening.

The last time these sides met was back in September last year at Estadio Jose Alvalade, which Sporting went on to win 2-0 - a result that saw them take the lead in the league standings.

We say: Rio Ave 1-3 Sporting Lisbon

Sporting have been in incredible league form lately and are scoring goals for fun both at home and on the road. The Lions have outscored this opponent 10-2 in their six-match unbeaten streak against them, and we feel they will add on a few more in this one en route to a comfortable victory.
