Rio Ave, Recent FormA 1-1 draw and a point gained against Gil Vicente in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent result for Rio Ave last time out. They came away from that fixture with 42% of the possession and clocked up 19 attempts on goal with 7 on target. By comparison, Gil Vicente managed 8 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
Supremo Luís Freire will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 13 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 7 goals they've managed to net. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Results have been poor for Rio Ave recently, with 4 losses and only 1 win from their last 6 league games their current form is not going to help them move up the table.
Estrela Amadora, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 home defeat by Moreirense will have left the Estrela Amadora squad feeling a little deflated. In that game they recorded 57 % of the possession, with 10 attempts on goal, 2 on target. Their opponents found the target on 2 of their 12 shots on goal.
It's fair to say that manager Sérgio Vieira will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 10 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 1-0 win for Rio Ave.
Rio Ave have scored in each of their last 6 games at home in the league against Tricolores.
In the league, Rio Ave has an strong track record when they play host to Estrela, notchng up a win in their last 6 home games.
