Vitória de Guimarães team overview
Vitória de Guimarães have experienced a mixed run of results in recent weeks. Their latest outings include a 4-2 defeat away to Estoril and a 0-1 home loss to Porto earlier in the month, highlighting defensive fragilities against stronger opposition. Their matches tend to see goals, with 4 of their last 6 fixtures producing over 2.5 total goals, reflecting both offensive potential and defensive lapses.
Injury reports indicate that Guimarães have had absences - including key squad members like Gui, O. Rivas Viondi and V. Sousa - which could influence squad rotation and tactical decisions for this match. Vitória lack a recognised goalscorer, with forwards Oumar Camara and Nelson Oliveira having contributed just three goals each across 19 league appearances so far.

Moreirense team overview
Moreirense have crafted a stronger start to the second half of their Liga Portugal Betclic campaign, sitting sixth with 30 points. Their recent form includes a 1-0 win over Santa Clara and three victories in their last six matches in all competitions, along with two draws and one loss. Their away form, however, has not been the most encouraging, having accumulated only three wins in the first ten league outings on the road.
Their recent victory over Guimarães - a 2-0 win - highlights Moreirense’s capability to upset their opponents when key players are performing, potentially boosting confidence as they travel to Estádio Dom Afonso Henriques.
Unlike Vitória, Moreirense have a recognised goalscorer whose contribution to the team’s overall goal tally has been significant: Guilherme Schettine has scored nine goals in 15 Liga Portugal appearances.

Prediction
Statistical trends and current form suggest this Liga Portugal clash could be finely balanced. Vitória de Guimarães’ historical dominance at home against Moreirense, coupled with their strong goal output in home head-to-head encounters, provides them with a slight edge; however, recent defeats to Estoril and Porto have exposed defensive frailties. Moreirense, by contrast, have recorded three league wins in recent weeks, giving Vasco Costa’s side a notable surge of confidence heading into this fixture. As a result, we predict the visitors to avoid defeat on Friday.
Prediction: Moreirense not to lose (double chance X2).
Three reasons we expect Double chance X2
- Moreirense have collected three wins from a possible four in their recent Liga Portugal endeavours.
- Vitoria have suffered back-to-back league defeats against Estoril and Porto.
- Moreirense have avoided defeat against Vitoria in their last two h2h meetings.
