Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Rio Ave vs. Farense

Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Sunday's Primeira Liga fixtures - Maritimo vs. Moreirense and Rio Ave vs. Farense.

Maritimo will be on the hunt for a first win in eight league games on Sunday when they host Moreirense, who sit eighth in the Primeira Liga table.

After escaping the foot of the table earlier in the season, Sunday's hosts now find themselves back in the drop zone, while their opponents sit comfortably in the top half of the division.

We say: Maritimo 0-2 Moreirense


We expect Maritimo's winless run to continue on Sunday, as they could be outclassed by the visitors with their sights set on seventh place.

Mendes's side have definitely struggled without Pinho in attack, and we see them failing to score again here, while their weak defence could be taken apart by the exciting Moreirense attack.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Rio Ave vs. Farense (Sunday, 8.00pm)

An important game takes place at the bottom of the Primeira Liga table on Sunday, as 11th-placed Rio Ave host SC Farense, who sit 14th.

After two consecutive losses, the home side now sit just three points above the bottom three, while Farense have recently dragged themselves out of the relegation zone thanks to an upturn in form.

We say: Rio Ave 1-0 SC Farense


While recent form points to a Farense victory in this game, the loss of their talisman Gauld could have a huge negative impact on Os Leoes de Faro.

That combined with the loss of a key centre-back should tip the game in the favour of the hosts, as they look to secure an important victory to move back up the league table.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
