Draw

Pacos Ferreira are finally showing signs of improvement after the managerial change. However, the club remains winless in the campaign but there were plenty of positive factors in the draw with Chaves. Rio Ave have drawn both matches since the resumption of the league action and momentum is certainly not with the team coming into the game.

Total goals under 2.5

There have been less than 2.5 goals in the last five games for Pacos Ferreira. Even though there has been improvement in the team’s overall play since the appointment of César Peixoto, they still have a long way to go. Rio Ave have only had an average of around a goal per game in all home matches this season. This prediction expects less than 2.5 goals in the game.

Both teams to score – yes

This prediction has witnessed the two teams play out a 1-1 draw in the last match. It can be quite difficult to expect Pacos Ferreira to come up with a winning performance but they remain good nonetheless. Rio Ave head into the game with just one clean sheet in the last four outings.

Rio Ave vs Pacos Ferreira: Match Preview and Team News

Rio Ave

Rio Ave have had a disappointing resumption to league action with the team failing to win back-to-back games. The team has given up opportunities to get wins from games that appeared quite winnable just a few weeks ago. Manager Luís Freire needs to find a winning combination once again. He comes into the game without Joca because of any injuries. However, Miguel Baeza is back from his injury problems and is expected to start.

Pacos Ferreira

Pacos Ferreira are finally showing signs of possibility by bringing an end to the six-game losing sequence with a draw against Chaves. The club, though, are still waiting for the first win of the season but there is finally some positivity within the team. Pacos Ferreira will be without Luís Bastos and Abbas Ibrahim coming into the game.
