Estoril vs. Arouca (Saturday, 3.30pm)
Two sides separated by just one point at the bottom end of the Primeira Liga table lock horns on Saturday as Estoril Praia play host to Arouca at the Estadio Antonio Coimbra da Mota.
Both sides head into the weekend off the back of contrasting results in the Taca de Portugal, with the Arouquenses picking up a dominant victory over amateur side Maria da Fonte.
We say: Estoril Praia 1-2 Arouca
It has been a slow start to the league campaign for Estoril Praia and Arouca, who find themselves separated by just one point at the bottom of the table, and we expect both sides to go all out in search of maximum points this weekend.
The Arouquenses take on a deflated Estoril side, who were sent packing from the Taca de Portugal last time out, and we are tipping them to come away with the desired result, albeit by a slender margin.

Boavista vs. Moreirense (Saturday, 6.00pm)
Fresh off the back of picking up contrasting results in the Taca de Portugal, Boavista play host to Moreirense at the Estadio do Bessa in round nine of the Portuguese Primeira Liga on Saturday.
Having failed to taste victory in the last six meetings between the two teams since June 2020, Os verdes e brancos will head into the weekend looking to get one over the hosts and make it three wins from three across all competitions.
We say: Boavista 0-1 Moreirense
After weeks of mediocre results, Moreirense have turned a corner of late and will head into the weekend looking to make it three wins from three across all competitions.
Boavista, on the other hand, have failed to get going this season, and while they boast a solid home record in this fixture, we see them struggling this weekend once again.

Famalicao vs. Sporting Lisbon (Saturday, 8.30pm)
Sporting Lisbon will be looking to maintain their 100% record in the Portuguese Primeira Liga when they take on Famalicao at the Estadio Municipal de Famalicao on Saturday.
Having lost each of the last six meetings between the two teams, the home side will enter the weekend looking to get one over the Leoes and snap their five-game run of five back-to-back games without a win in the league.
We say: Famalicao 0-3 Sporting Lisbon
While Famalicao will be looking to pick up where they left off in the Taca de Portugal and extend their snap their five-game winless run league, they are in for a tough 90 minutes against a Sporting Lisbon side currently firing on all cylinders.
With an in-form Gyokeres leading their attack, Amorim's men have been lethal in front of goal this season, netting 27 goals in the league alone, and we fancy them to extend their dominance over the Vila Nova this weekend.
