An interesting game is the one that awaits us for matchday thirty-one of the Primeira Liga when at the Estadio do Rio Ave Futebol Clube in Vila do Conde a table complicated by the issue of permanence such as Rio Ave receives a visit from the leader Sporting Lisboa .

It has been difficult for those led by Miguel Cardoso to be able to add by three and thus the Rio Ave cast has not been able to win in its last seven games for the Primeira Liga and thus it is complicated with the issue of permanence, since although They are outside the red zone, the difference with Boavista is just two points.

Now, if we look at things from another perspective, although Rio Ave has not won in its last seven games, note that only two of them ended in defeats and they know that at this final stage of the season they have to make their local condition prevail. to get away from the red zone and for this he needs to maintain a regularity at home regardless of who is in front of him and beware that the Vila do Conde cast has just lost one of their last five games at home.

Possible lineup: Pawel Kieszek; Costinha, Toni Borevkovic, Aderlian Santos, Pedro Amaral; Chico Geraldes, Filipe Augusto, Guga; Fabio Coentrao, Junior Brandao, Gelson Dala.

 
 
 

 
 



For their part, the Lions have regained their level in recent weeks and have thus come from winning their last two games, the last of them against Nacional at home 2-0, in order not only to remain undefeated in the Primeira Liga but also the advantage of six points over his guard FC Porto, and well with four games to the end of the season, he knows that he has to win at least three of them and thus end that long drought without being able to lift the crown in Portuguese football.

For this, the Lions have to maintain that regularity away from home that has led them to add a streak of eight official games without falling where they won six of them where they have not even conceded goals in four of their last five games, and incidentally break that streak of four games without being able to defeat Rio Ave.

Possible alignment: Antonio Adan; Goncalo Inacio, Sebastian Coates, Zouhair Feddal; Pedro Porro, Joao Mario, Joao Palhinha, Nuno Mendes; Pedro Goncalves, Paulinho, Jovane Cabral.
