Estoril vs. Rio Ave (Sunday, 3.30pm)
Seeking to pick up their first win of the 2023-24 Portuguese Primeira Liga campaign, Estoril Praia play host to Rio Ave on Sunday evening.
The Vilacondenses are currently unbeaten in each of their last eight visits to the Estadio Antonio Coimbra da Mota and will head into the weekend looking to extend this dominant run.
We say: Estoril Praia 1-1 Rio Ave
While Estoril will be looking to continue their impressive home record, Rio Ave's record at the Estadio Antonio Coimbra da Mota means that Saturday's game will be anything but a straightforward affair. We predict both sides will cancel out each other's efforts and settle for a share of the spoils.

Porto vs. Farense (Sunday, 6.00pm)
Off the back of contrasting starts to the new league campaign, Porto and SC Farense go head-to-head at the Estadio do Dragao in round two of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.
The Leoes de Faro are currently on a run of six back-to-back away wins across all competitions and will head into the weekend looking to keep the juggernaut rolling.
We say: Porto 3-0 SC Farense
While Farense will be looking to get their campaign up and running this weekend, they have their work cut out against a formidable side in Porto. Given the gulf in class and quality between the two teams, we fancy the Dragoes cruising to a comfortable victory in front of their home supporters.

Vizela vs. Arouca (Sunday, 8.30pm)
Fresh from their elimination from the Europa Conference League, Arouca will be bidding to make it two wins from their two matches at the start of the new Primeira Liga season when they travel to Vizela on Sunday.
Arouca recorded a 4-3 victory over Estoril in their campaign opener last weekend, while Vizela suffered a 3-2 defeat to Sporting Lisbon in their first match of the 2023-24 season.
We say: Vizela 1-2 Arouca
Vizela will certainly be the fresher of the two teams entering this match, but it remains to be seen how important that is early in the season. Arouca have the superior quality across their pitch, and we are expecting the visitors to navigate their way to all three points on Sunday.
