Arouca vs Rio Ave Prediction & Betting Tips | 10/12/2023 | Football

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

Our forecast for this Portugal Primeira Liga game:

Arouca

Arouca

Rio Ave

Rio Ave

Arouca and Rio Ave go head to head at Estadio Municipal de Arouca in what is expected to be a close Primeira Liga encounter. Arouca produced their best performance of the season in a 4-0 win over Boavista, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Cristo, who scored a brace in the last league match, while Ukraine defender Bogdan Milovanov serves a one-game ban.

The Rioavistas, however, will enter the game after a 1-1 tie with Estrela. Recently, Rio Ave has had difficulties while playing away and we do not think they can ruin Arouca’s celebration at Estadio Municipal. The away team has no new injuries to worry about as they head to the Aveiro District. In their previous meeting in July for the Portuguese Cup, Arouca won 2-0 against Rio Ave.

The game will take place on October 12th, 2023 at 7:00 PM.

Prediction:
1-0

Featured Squad (Rio Ave):

Rio Ave

Rio Ave, also known as Rio Grande, is a Portuguese team that participates in the Primeira Liga. The club was established in 1939 and plays their home games at the Estadio dos Arcos, which has a capacity of 12,815 spectators.

The team’s primary jersey features a green base with white stripes, while their shorts are also green. When playing away, Rio Ave dons all white uniforms. The club’s most significant accomplishment was during the 2014/2015 season when they represented Portugal in the group stage of the Europa League. Although Rio Ave finished in last place in Group J, they made history by securing their first victory in the competition, defeating Danish club Aalborg 2-0 at their home stadium, Estadio do Rio Ave Futebol Clube.

Fabio Coentrao, a former full-back for Real Madrid, is highly regarded as one of the team’s most notable players. Similarly, Ederson, the first-choice goalkeeper for Manchester City, also has a past with Rio Ave.
