Vitoria Guimaraes vs Moreirense Predictions

• Both teams have scored in four of the last six meetings between these two clubs.
• Both teams have scored in four of Vitoria Guimaraes’ last six league games.
• Both Guimaraes and Moreirense have only lost one of their last six league games.
• Under 2.5 goals have been produced in three of the pairs’ last four encounters.

Both teams are in good form heading into Friday’s clash

Vitoria Guimaraes earned a point at in-form Belenenses last week where the final scoreline ended 1-1, while Moreirense saw their unbeaten run come to an end at home to Rio Ave as the hosts were beaten by a single goal to nil.

Friday’s hosts haven’t lost any of their last five matches, in league and cup, against Moreirense and sit 6pts clear of the visitors heading into their latest encounter. The last meeting between the two clubs ended 1-1 back in November after Tapsoba’s opener from the penalty spot put Guimaraes in front only for the aptly named Vitoria to equalise for Moreirense shortly after.

The hosts haven’t lost any of their last five matches against Moreirense

Both teams head into Friday’s in identical form, with each picking up three wins, two draws and a solitary defeat from their last six matches in the Primeira Liga. Our prediction for both teams to score is backed by the facts that both teams have scored in four of the last six meetings between these two clubs as well as in 62% of Moreirense’s away games this season.

Vitoria Guimaraes have scored in all of their last six matches and only kept two clean sheets, while Moreirense have only failed to score in one of their last six outings and like their hosts, have only kept two clean sheets during that period. The hosts have also drawn their last two league games and both teams have drawn nine of their 26 games so far this season, so you can see why we are predicting a stalemate on Friday.

Just two positions separate these two clubs in the Primeira Liga table

Guimaraes average 1.62 points per home game where they score an average of 1.69 goals and concede 0.92 goals while Moreirense average 0.92 points on the road where they score an average of 1.15 goals and concede 1.31 goals, all of which ties in perfectly with our prediction for a 1-1 draw between the pair this Friday.
