Vitoria Guimaraes to boost Europe hopes at Belenenses
Os Belenenses SAD vs Vitória Guimarães - 11/06/2020
2973
On Thursday night, Belenenses host Vitoria Guimaraes in the Portuguese Primeira Liga, as the visitors look to enhance their hopes of earning a European place this season.
The home side are ten points clear of the relegation spots in the Portuguese top-flight after a run of five games unbeaten. A 2-0 win at CD Aves last time out means that the home side has now kept clean sheets in their last four league outings.
The solid recent defensive performances have contributed to their last four league matches producing under 2.5 goals.
Belenenses have an inconsistent recent home record in the Primeira Liga, as they have won just two of their last seven league games on home soil. However, the last two home league matches have offered them some encouragement, as they have picked up four points and kept two straight clean sheets in clashes with Maritimo and last time out Famalicao.
Vitoria Guimaraes are on the fringes of the European spots. The visitors are currently sixth in the Portuguese top-flight table and five points off the top-four after a decent recent run of league form.
A 2-2 home draw with Sporting last time out means that the visitors are four games unbeaten in the Portuguese top-flight. The draw also ended a three-game winning run for Ivo Vieira’s team.
The visitors have certainly found their shooting boots of late, as they have scored at least two goals in their last four league outings. There have been at least two goals scored in their last eight matches.
Vitoria Guimaraes have won their last three away games in the Primeira Liga. However, the wins are their only league victories on the road in nine matches.
Forebet predicts that the visitors will continue their positive recent run of away form in this clash by recording a win in a tight, low-scoring encounter.
