Maritimo continue their battle for survival in the Portuguese Primeira Liga as they square off against Rio Ave at the Estadio do Maritimo on Sunday.
The Vilacondenses head into the weekend looking to get one over the hosts, having failed to win any of the last five league meetings between the sides since January 2020.
We say: Maritimo 1-1 Rio Ave
Rio Ave endured a rough spell in April but will be looking to build on last Friday's victory over Arouca. As for Maritimo, they will draw inspiration from their recent results in this fixture as they look to pull clear of the automatic drop zone. With that said, we predict an end-to-end affair, with both sides settling for a point apiece.

Vitoria de Guimaraes continue their quest for European football when they square off against Vizela at the Estadio Dom Afonso Henriques on Sunday.
Having suffered a disappointing loss to bottom dwellers Pacos de Ferreira last time out, the Vizelenses have gone three consecutive games without a win and will be looking to end this dry spell.
We say: Vitoria de Guimaraes 2-1 Vizela
Buoyed by their victory over Maritimo, Teixeira's men will head into the weekend with renewed belief as they look to rekindle their race for a spot in Europe. While Vizela have the firepower in their ranks, they have struggled to get going in recent weeks and we predict Vitoria de Guimaraes will do just enough to come away victorious.

After ending their three-match losing streak last time out, Pacos de Ferreira will seek to make it back-to-back victories when they host Sporting Lisbon at Estadio da Mata Real on Sunday, as they resume their late push from the Primeira Liga danger zone.
As for the visitors, they are on course to make it three successive league victories this weekend and continue their race for a Champions League ticket.
We say: Pacos de Ferreira 0-2 Sporting Lisbon
Pacos de Ferreira may have secured a vital win last weekend, but they have only tasted victory in front of their own fans twice all season, and with Sporting Lisbon's record on the road, it is difficult to see anything other than an away victory.
