Famalicao vs Moreirense Predictions

Famalicao drew 2-2 away at Braga last time out while Moreirense were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Vitoria Guimaraes, and both teams have proven difficult to beat in recent weeks.

All of the stats suggest that we are likely to see both teams score in Saturday’s match and we’ve backed Famalicao to claim a narrow 2-1 win in front of their own fans.

Both teams scored and over 2.5 goals were produced in two of the pairs’ last three encounters, so you can begin to see why we’ve backed a final scoreline of 2-1 between the pair this weekend. Famalicao sit thirteen points and ten places ahead of Moreiense in the Primeira Liga table and head into the game as the form favourites, which is why we have backed the hosts to win on Saturday.

The performances of both teams during the last month or so provide even more weight to our prediction of goals being scored at both ends of the pitch this weekend, as both teams scored in five of Famalicao’s and each of Moreirense’s last six matches. Over 2.5 goals were produced in five of Famalicao’s and three of Moreirense’s last six matches, which is why we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1 in favour of the hosts this weekend.

The form of the two teams heading into Saturday’s clash provides even more reason to back a home win, as Famailcao have won four of their last six matches while Moreirense have only won one of their last six. The hosts have won each of their home league games this season and their guests are yet to claim a win on the road in the Primeira Liga so far, providing even more reason to back a Famalicao victory this Saturday.

We’re confident that both teams will score on Saturday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1 in favour of the hosts. Famalicao head into this match as the clear form favourites and are yet to drop any points in the league at home, while Moreirense have struggled on the road and still await their first away win in the Primeira Liga this season.
