Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Vitoria de Guimaraes vs. Estrela

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Primeira Liga fixtures, including Vitoria de Guimaraes vs. Estrela.

Fresh off the back of picking up their first win of the year, Portimonense play host to Gil Vicente at the Estadio Municipal de Portimao in round 18 of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.

Having picked up a resounding 5-0 victory in August's reverse fixture, the Gilistas will head into the weekend looking to do the double over the hosts and record their first away win in well over a year.

We say: Portimonense 2-0 Gil Vicente

Buoyed by their victory over Farense, Portimonense will head into the weekend with renewed confidence as they look to continue their surge into the top half of the table. Sergio's men take on a Gil Vicente side who have struggled to impose themselves on the road and we are tipping them to claim all three points in this one.

Two sides who could do well with a win go head to head on Sunday as Chaves play host to Rio Ave at the Estadio Municipal Eng. Manuel Branco Teixeira in round 18 of the Primeira Liga.

Having failed to win the last nine top-flight meetings between the teams, the Flavienses will head into the weekend looking to get one over the visitors and pick up their first win of the year.

We say: Chaves 1-1 Rio Ave

Having both endured a disappointing first half of the season, Chaves and Rio Ave find themselves scrambling for points in the relegation zone and will head into the weekend in search of a pick-me-up. While Rio Ave are slight favourites, they have struggled to impose themselves away from home and we predict they will hold out for a share of the spoils.

Round 18 of the 2023-24 Primeira Liga season concludes with a meeting between Vitoria de Guimaraes and Estrela Amadora at the Estadio D. Afonso Henriques on Sunday.

The home side set out to record a third consecutive victory, while their visitors go in search of what would be a first win in five matches.

We say: Vitoria de Guimaraes 2-1 Estrela Amadora

Vitoria de Guimaraes have been in tremendous form of late and it is hard to bet against them getting the job done here. We are tipping the hosts to secure maximum points, albeit by only a narrow margin.
