Vitoria Guimaraes victory

Vitoria Guimaraes might have produced some disappointing performances in the last few games, but matches at home tend to be good for Vitoria Guimaraes, who have picked up a victory in 60% of the home matches this season. This includes a sequence of five wins in the last six games. Meanwhile, Arouca should not offer much threat especially in an away game. Arouca have been pretty disappointing on the road throughout the season with just one win for far.

Total goals under 2.5

The home team did not create too many chances in the recent loss to Belenenses. Meanwhile, Arouca have failed to score in three consecutive games even if there have been over 2.5 goals in 50% of the last four Primeira Liga matches for the strugglers.

Both teams to score – no

The potential for witnessing goals at both ends is quite low, as Arouca do not tend to score a lot of goals. The visitors are quite good going away from home and Vitoria Guimaraes should be good enough for a clean sheet even if they have not kept one in the last five home matches.
