The Parque Desportivo Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas is the venue for a Primeira Liga contest on Friday evening as Moreirense hosts Gil Vicente.
Moreirense vs Gil Vicente Betting Tips: Under 2.5 Goals / Moreirense or Draw
A tight contest can be expected when eighth placed Moreirense and Gil Vicente (tenth) face-off in the Primeira Liga this weekend. Separated by just four points in the league standings, both teams come into this fixture having suffered back-to-back defeats in the past ten days.
Hosts Moreirense had enjoyed a three-game winning run before back-to-back road defeats at Porto (2:0) and Vitoria Guimaraes (1:0).
Much stronger in home fixtures, Cesar Peixoto´s side have lost just one of their last ten league matches at Parque Desportivo Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas since February.
Low-scoring outcomes have been frequent at this venue, with only three of 13 previous games seeing more than three goals scored.
Gil Vicente make the trip to Moreira de Cónegos looking to recover from successive 2:1 defeats against Santa Clara and Boavista. Bruno Pinheiro´s men have failed to win any of their last seven away league fixtures.
A lack of firepower remains an issue for the visitors. Gil Vicente netted just six in their last 11 away fixtures, while they failed to score more than one goal in any of those fixtures.
Considering the respective form of both teams, Moreirense look better placed to claim a positive result in what should prove a low-scoring affair.
Under 2.5 goals is my preferred pick, while I also fancy Moreirense to take at least a point on Friday.
