Maritimo vs Farense Prediction

Maritimo vs Farense Betting Tips

Two struggling Primeira Liga sides battling the dreaded drop zone collide Saturday when bottom side Maritimo host Farense - two places and a point above them in the division's relegation playoff place.

Both were undone by two of the league's top four sides last weekend. 

Braga left it late to sink a valiant Farense effort 2-1 while Benfica were 1-0 winners at Maritimo's expense: if not for goalkeeper Amir Abedzadeh, it would've resembled a four or five-goal drubbing. 

Ryan Gauld shone against Braga: eight duels won, three successful dribbles, and key passes alongside the first-half assist for Pedro Henrique. Can the Scotsman help inspire them to victory here?

Maritimo vs Farense Correct Score Prediction

The H2H statistics are finely poised ahead of this matchup (one win each, two draws), but Farense were 2-1 winners in the reverse fixture (December 7). BTTS is my pick, as neither side can afford to lose here.
