Tondela vs Gil Vicente prediction 13.04.2026 | Liga Portugal Betclic

Tondela come into Monday’s Liga Portugal Betclic clash badly in need of a response following a dismal 5-0 defeat at Vitoria last weekend. Goncalo Feio’s side struggled badly, with a 0.06 xG highlighting a poor attacking display on the road.

Stronger at home, the hosts have lost just one of their last five matches, with four of those games ending in draws, including a goalless stalemate against Benfica.

Now five points adrift of safety with seven games remaining, Tondela must improve in the final third to avoid relegation to the Segunda division. The hosts have scored just nine goals in 14 home fixtures this season, while five of their last six games at Estadio Joao Cardoso have finished with under 2.5 goals, suggesting another low-scoring encounter is likely.

Head coach Feio has two confirmed injury absentees this week. Nor Maviram is sidelined with an unspecified injury, while Jordan is another absentee in attack.

Gil Vicente make the trip to Estádio João Cardoso after an excellent 3:0 win against AVS last weekend. Gustavo Varela bagged twice in a well-deserved victory for Cesar Peixoto’s side. 

Before last weekend’s much-needed win, Gil Vicente had failed to win each of five previous league fixtures. The visitors now sit sixth in the division, four points behind fourth-placed Braga. 

On the road, Gil Vicente have won only four of 14 away games this season and may struggle to improve that record here in what looks likely to be a tight contest. Cesar Peixoto’s side have seen an average of 2.35 goals scored per game in their last 14 away matches (Primiera Liga)

Head coach Peixoto is likely to retain confidence in the same side that eased past AVS. Mohamed Bamba is the only confirmed injury absentee for the visitors.
