Rio Ave Marítimo betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This will be a match where both teams should try to dominate the game, even though the ascendant must naturally belong to Rio Ave. With the former coach of the Vila do Conde team, Marítimo has already shown that he wants to be a bolder team in offensive terms, which should lead him to try to play the game for the game, against a Rio Ave who likes to have ball and attack in organization. Due to the uncomplicated way in which both teams should present themselves, scoring opportunities should be plentiful.

Preview
Rio Ave and Marítimo face at Estádio do Rio Ave Futebol Clube, in a match for the 15th round of the Primeira Liga. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 3 wins and 2 draws in the last 5 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 19‑08‑2018, in a match for the Primeira Liga, Rio Ave won by (3‑1). The goals of the match were scored by Bruno Moreira (12' ), Gelson (40' ) and D. Furtado (87' ), for Rio Ave, and by Joel (73' ), for Marítimo. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Rio Ave

After 5 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses, the home team is in the 6th position, havinf won 19 points so far. In the last match, they have tied in an away match against Portimonense by (1‑1), after in the previous match they have won (1‑0) at home, against Gil Vicente. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a home loss against Gil Vicente by (0‑1). For the league, Rio Ave won 11 points out of 21 possible points, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 7 home matches. They have conceded the first goal in 6 of their 14 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around.

With the objective of qualifying for the Europa League, Rio Ave comes to this 15th round with an average path, insufficient to take a firm bid for the European places. For now, the "vila-condenses" are two points away from Vitória de Guimarães and five from Famalicão, a path that has revealed an interesting defensive consistency. In the last round of the championship, Carlos Carvalhal's team did not go beyond a draw (1-1) in the visit to Portimonense, even playing in numerical superiority during the last half hour of the match, when they conceded the draw, after Diego Lopes' maiden strike. Already thereafter, Rio Ave secured the qualification in the Portuguese Cup by beating Marinhense by 2-0 but was unable to continue to the League Cup "final four" after losing at home against Gil Vicente (0 -1).

Confirmed Lineup: Pawel Kieszek, Diogo Figueiras, Aderllan Santos, Toni Borevković, Matheus Reis, Diego Lopes, Tarantini, Mehdi Taremi, Nuno Santos, Ronan, Lucas Piazon.
Coach: L. Batalha Freire.

Analysis Marítimo

The away team is currently in the 13th position of the league, with 15 points won, after 3 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Santa Clara, by (2‑2). In the last match, they won in a home match against Boavista, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 4 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 31 conceded; against 4 wins, 8 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 16 conceded. In their last match, for the Taça da Liga, they got a home tie against Penafiel by (0‑0). Their last away match for this competition ended in a loss by (4‑0) against Benfica. In the last 6 away league matches Marítimo has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 5 points out of 18 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 4 away matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (3 out of 6 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 14 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Although Marítimo's main goal in this edition of the NOS League is to ensure maintenance, the small four points of the islanders at the moment in relation to the relegation zone does not give the comfort and safety margin that the fans and the management want. Coach Jose Gomes, who succeeded Nuno Manta Santos, has played four games in charge of the Maritimistas coach, having made his debut against Benfica (0-4) in what was the only defeat so far. After that, Marítimo tied with Santa Clara (2-2) and beat Boavista (1-0), for the championship. In the farewell of the League Cup, the team from Madeira tied in the hosting Penafiel, in a scoreless game that served to meet the schedule.

Confirmed Lineup: Amir Abedzadeh, Bebeto, Zainadine Júnior, Ruben Ferreira, Renê Santos, Jorge Correa, Franck Bambock, Josip Vuković, Nanu, Getterson, Rodrigo Pinho.
Coach: M. da Silva Cruz.
