Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Rio Ave vs. Moreirense

Arouca vs. Chaves (Sunday, 3.30pm)

Arouca will be looking to record back-to-back wins across all competitions when they welcome strugglers Chaves to Estadio Municipal de Arouca on Sunday afternoon in the Primeira Liga.

The hosts started their group-stage campaign in the League Cup with a win in the week, while Chaves have had a full week to mull over a share of the spoils in the league last week, when the visitors collected their maiden point of the term.

We say: Arouca 2-0 Chaves

Arouca ended their concerning winless run in the League Cup in the week, and last term's fifth-placed team will be confident of recording another success against basement dwellers Chaves this Sunday.

The Flavienses only just managed to earn a last-gasp draw at home to a newly-promoted side last time out, and we believe they will be unable to repeat the trick in Arouca this weekend.

Guimaraes vs. Estoril (Sunday, 6.00pm)

Fresh off the back of an opening-day victory in the Taca da Liga, Estoril Praia journey to the Estadio Dom Afonso Henriques to face Vitoria de Guimaraes in round seven of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.

Having lost each of the last three meetings between the sides, the Canarinhos will head into this one looking to get one over the hosts and get their league campaign up and running.

We say: Vitoria de Guimaraes 0-1 Estoril Praia

Buoyed by their midweek cup victory, Estoril Praia will head into Sunday's games with renewed confidence as they look to pull clear of the bottom of the table. After a solid start to the campaign, Vitoria de Guimaraes appear to have run out of steam and we fancy the visitors scraping a narrow victory in this one.

Rio Ave vs. Moreirense (Sunday, 8.30pm)

Rio Ave will be seeking to snap their five-match winless run on Sunday when they welcome Moreirense to the Estadio dos Arcos in round seven of the Portuguese Primeira Liga.

Os verdes e brancos, who have failed to win any of the last six meetings between the sides since January 2019, will set out to get one over the hosts and pick up back-to-back wins for the first time this season.

We say: Rio Ave 1-2 Moreirense

Moreirense have enjoyed a decent start to life back in the top flight and will be looking to build on last week's victory. Broges's men take on a floundering Rio Ave side who have failed to win their last five matches and we are backing them to come away with all three points, albeit by the odd goal.
