The Rio Ave players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against SC Braga recently, that ended in a 2-0 defeat. Their share of possession in that meeting was 36%, while racking up 10 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to SC Braga, who had 21 shots on goal with 11 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 4 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. A number of teams visiting Estádio do Rio Ave have struggled to break through on goal this season so far with the home side having kept 5 clean sheets.
They have lost 4 of their last 6 matches, which will be a focus of concern, but their 2 wins in that period did produce some valuable points nevertheless.

Gil Vicente will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-0 win in their home outing against Marítimo. In that game they had 46% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Marítimo who had 19 attempts and 6 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Daniel Sousa will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 8 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 5 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. On the road, they are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 away games. They have shown some defensive frailties on the road of late, having given away at least 1 goal in 10 of their past 11 away league matches, making points very hard to come by.
Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included.
With 5 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Fran Navarro has given the travelling Gil Vicente support something to shout about on the road.
