Our Prediction
This match promises to be a tense affair with both teams eager for points. Estrela da Amadora holds the home advantage and sits in a slightly more comfortable league position, coupled with a more stable defensive record this season. However, FC Arouca, despite their defensive struggles (conceding an average of 2.73 goals per game), will be highly motivated to escape the relegation zone. Their previous away victory against Amadora (1-4) demonstrates their capacity to find the net, even if their defense has been leaky this season.
Given Arouca’s desperate need for points and their attacking capabilities (13 goals scored, same as Amadora), combined with their significant defensive frailties, we anticipate a game where both teams will likely find the back of the net. Amadora, playing at home, should be confident in breaching Arouca’s porous defense, while Arouca’s urgency will push them forward.
