Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Belenenses vs. Porto

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Primeira Liga fixtures, including Belenenses vs. Porto.


Santa Clara vs. Tondela (Sunday, 3.30pm)

An important game in the bottom half of the Primeira Liga table takes place on Sunday, as Santa Clara welcome Tondela to the Estadio de Sao Miguel.

A shock victory over defending champions Sporting Lisbon has seen the hosts jump up to 14th spot, now sitting level on points with their visitors.

We say: Santa Clara 1-1 Tondela


After previous poor runs, both sides will now come in with renewed confidence, and we cannot quite pick a winner.

Santa Clara showed an impressive side to their game against Sporting Lisbon and may be further encouraged by the introduction of a new manager, but CDT have what it takes to leave with a point.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Following a harmful defeat last time out, Primeira Liga champions Sporting Lisbon will look to bounce back to winning ways on Sunday, when they travel to take on newly-promoted Vizela.

A 3-2 loss to Santa Clara saw the visitors drop three points behind Porto at the summit of the Primeira Liga table, while their hosts had a meeting with Porto of their own on Wednesday, with a cup clash ending in a 3-1 defeat.

We say: Vizela 0-3 Sporting Lisbon


Given Vizela's squad issues, Sporting Lisbon should fancy themselves to record a dominant win on Sunday.

With the need to bounce back in a heated title race, Amorim's men will aim to put the newly-promoted side to the sword with their imposing front line.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.

Famalicao vs. Pacos de Ferreira (Sunday, 6.30pm)

After recently climbing out of the bottom two of the Primeira Liga table, Famalicao will look to stretch their league unbeaten run to four games on Sunday, when they play host to Pacos de Ferreira.

The hosts defeated basement side Belenenses last time out after successive draws, while their visitors come in on the back of a defeat to Benfica last weekend.

We say: Famalicao 1-1 Pacos de Ferreira


While Pacos de Ferreira arguably boast more quality on paper, Famalicao will come in with renewed confidence, and we fancy them to earn a point.

The loss of Denilson will be a big one for the visitors to deal with, and we ultimately predict a low-scoring draw on Sunday as Fama fight for another positive result.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Sides at opposite ends of the Primeira Liga table will square off on Sunday, as league leaders Porto travel to take on basement side Belenenses.

The visitors now sit three points clear at the summit of the top flight, while their hosts suffered a disappointing defeat last time out to remain four points adrift of safety.

We say: Belenenses 0-3 Porto


Given the seasons that these two sides are having, we can only see Porto coming out as comfortable winners on Sunday.

Os Dragoes have shown themselves to be formidable at both ends of the pitch, and Conceicao's side should have far too much for their hosts.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.
