Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Famalicao vs. Sporting Lisbon

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


Guimaraes vs. Maritimo (Sunday, 3.30pm)

Fresh off the back of progressing to the round of 16 of the Taca de Portugal, Vitoria de Guimaraes play host to Maritimo at the Dom Afonso Henriques in round 13 of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.

O Maior das Ilhas, on the other hand, head into the weekend unbeaten in four straight league games and will be seeking to pick up back-to-back away wins for the first time since March.

We say: Vitoria de Guimaraes 2-0 Maritimo


While Maritimo will be looking to continue in their new-form form, they face a Vitoria de Guimaraes side whose home ground has been a fortress over the past few months. We predict that Moreno's side will extend their dominance over the visitors and claim all three points on Sunday.

Pacos de Ferreira vs. Vizela (Sunday, 3.30pm)

Two sides in need of a pick-me-up go head to head in the Portuguese Primeira Liga as Pacos de Ferreira lock horns with Vizela at the Estadio Capital do Movel on Sunday.

The Vizelenses saw their Taca de Portugal campaign come to an end last Wednesday and will head into the weekend looking to end their run of four consecutive games without a win across all competitions.

We say: Pacos de Ferreira 1-1 Vizela


We expect a thrilling contest at the Estadio Capital do Movel as Pacos de Ferreira and Vizela head into the weekend in search of a morale-boosting result. While the Vizelenses have enjoyed a better campaign so far, we are backing Mota's men to do just enough to leave with a share of the spoils.

Portimonense vs. Braga (Sunday, 6.00pm)

Fresh off the back of ending their four-game winless run, Portimonense play host to Braga at the Estadio Municipal de Portimao in round 13 of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.

The visitors, whose recent slump in the league has seen them drop to third place in the table, will look to build on Thursday's Taca de Portugal victory.

We say: Portimonense 1-3 Braga


Buoyed by their victory over Gil Vicente, Portimonense will head into the weekend with renewed belief as they look to put together a fine run of form. However, Braga boasts the firepower needed to get the job done and we are backing them to extend their dominance in the history of this fixture.

Casa Pia vs. Chaves (Sunday, 6.00pm)

Casa Pia know three points could take them into the Champions League places in the Primeira Liga when Chaves visit Estadio Nacional on Sunday evening.

This game sees a battle between two sides promoted to the top flight of Portugal last season, with both doing more than enough in the opening stages of this campaign to keep themselves away from a relegation fight at the wrong end of the table.

We say: Casa Pia 1-0 Chaves


Casa Pia have enjoyed a marvellous start to the campaign and will need to realign their ambitions this season to more than just Primeira Liga survival.

Chaves have been struggling of late and a trip to face a defensively solid and effective Casa Pia side is not a likely time for their poor form to change.

Benfica vs. Gil Vicente (Sunday, 6.00pm)

Two teams in contrasting form go head to head in round 13 of the Primeira Liga as Benfica welcome Gil Vicente to the Estadio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica on Sunday.

While the Gilistas will set out to end their four-game losing streak, the home side are currently on a run of seven consecutive victories and will be looking to keep the ball rolling.

We say: Benfica 3-1 Gil Vicente


Gil Vicente are in for a tough 90 minutes against a Benfica side who are currently firing on all cylinders and have enjoyed a stellar campaign so far. Given the gulf in quality and the contrasting form of both sides, we are backing As Aguias to come away with a comfortable victory in front of their home fans.

Famalicao vs. Sporting Lisbon (Sunday, 8.30pm)

Famalicao face off against Sporting Lisbon in the Primeira Liga at the Estadio Muncipal de Famalicao this Sunday.

The home side face a tough test but will be looking to put some distance between themselves and the relegation zone, while the visitors are pushing for the Champions League qualification places.

We say: Famalicao 0-2 Sporting Lisbon


Famalicao have started the process of turning their season around in recent matches, but they are still no match for a quality Sporting side, who so nearly managed to progress from a tricky Champions League group. As such, we expect the visitors to win in fairly comfortable style.
