Only two points separate Gil Vicente and Estrela Amadora ahead of Saturday’s Primeira Liga match at Estadio Cidade de Barcelos.
The away side head into the gameweek eight match having notched their first victory of the 2024-25 campaign and aim to build on that success against their out-of-form hosts.
We say: Gil Vicente 1-1 Estrela Amadora
Even though Estrela should take confidence from last week’s victory, they may have to settle for a point in their visit to Gil Vicente.
The home side have suffered heavy losses to two possible title contenders but have competed commendably in their other five Liga matches.
This one could end with both sides sharing the spoils in Barcelos.

Moreirense and Santa Clara are separated by four places in the Primeira Liga standings heading into Saturday’s gameweek eight clash at Parque Desportivo Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas.
The home side head into this weekend on the back of another disappointing result last time out when they made it five league games without success and are underdogs against this season’s early-season surprise package from Ponta Delgada.
We say: Moreirense 0-1 Santa Clara
Despite Moreirense’s commendable home results, we are backing Santa Clara to end that streak and secure a fifth Liga victory to extend their undefeated run in all competitions against the home team to five without losing.

Goal-shy Arouca are four places behind new boys AVS in the Primeira Liga standings before Saturday’s gameweek eight match at Estadio Municipal de Arouca.
Although Lobos have lost five of their opening seven fixtures to sit one point above the dreaded bottom two positions, success on home soil could take them above the promoted side at the end of the round.
We say: Arouca 1-0 AVS
Arouca have netted one league goal in front of their supporters this term — a 1-0 win over promoted Nacional — sandwiched between two losses to Vitoria Guimaraes (1-0) and Sporting (3-0).
A tight, low-scoring match is expected in Arouca, with the home side tipped to win 1-0 and extend AVS’s winless streak away from home.

Sporting Lisbon‘s unbeaten run in the Primeira Liga will be put to the test when they face an in-form Casa Pia side at Estadio Jose Alvalade on Saturday.
Ruben Amorim’s team have reeled off seven consecutive victories ahead of this weekend’s gameweek eight match-up against a side that have accrued eight points from their last 12.
We say: Sporting Lisbon 2-0 Casa Pia
Despite some injury concerns for Sporting, they are expected to continue their impressive form and secure another league victory against Casa Pia.
Amorim’s team have not dropped points in the Liga since late April, and their home advantage makes them strong favourites to claim an 11th consecutive triumph.
