Pacos Ferreira take on the visitors Gil Vicente in the round 18 match of Liga Portugal. The match will be played on Tuesday, January 31st at Estádio da Capital do Móvel (Paços de Ferreira).
It is unlikely that the last relatively positive results of Pacos Ferreira in the form of four points scored should be taken too seriously. They haven't changed anything in the standings, Pacos is the last one with six points and can go down a division. The leaders like Benfica and Braga easily beat the hosting side. With such a goal difference as -24, it is not so difficult to do this at all. The team scores very few goals but at the same time they avoid crushing defeat. At home, Pacos won the league match the last time back in April last year. In the reverse fixture, they lost to the opponent with a minimum difference, 0-1. Are there any chances to take revenge with their own fans? We strongly doubt it.

Last season ended great for Gil Vicente. The team repeated the club record finishing sixth and even briefly participated for the Conference League. Alas, in the current season the club looked quite bad for the time being and is still fighting for survival. Yes, in the last four rounds the visiting side managed to win three matches against competitors, which allowed them to leave the relegation zone. In general, Gil Vicente's level of football has not changed much compared to last season, it's just that sometimes the conversion of their own chances should be improved.
In a match between two rivals, the advantage of the hosts is not at all obvious. But bookmakers have about the same chances of overall success. One win against Rio Ave didn't change anything. A victory of Gil Vicente will allow the team to move further away from the relegation zone. The class of visitors is much higher. They just need to materialize their own advantage into goals. Taking into account the fact that in the last rounds the guests began to score on a regular basis, a bet on their victory with a zero handicap looks like the best option for confrontation.
Prediction for the match: Gil Vicente to win with 0.0 handicap.
