Estrela Amadora will be looking to pick up consecutive away wins for the first time this season when they visit the Parque de Jogos Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas to face Moreirense on Sunday.
Having suffered a 2-1 defeat in September's reverse fixture, Os verdes e brancos will aim to get one over the visitors this weekend as they continue their push for a top-half finish.
We say: Moreirense 1-0 Estrela Amadora
Estrela have picked up four points from the last six available and will be backing themselves against an out-of-sorts Moreirense side who have struggled to get going of late. However, home advantage gives Peixoto's side an added edge here and we are backing them to come out on top, albeit by the odd goal.

Seeking to snap their run of eight consecutive defeats, Boavista go head-to-head with Santa Clara in round 24 of the Portuguese Primeira Liga on Sunday.
Os Acorianos, who have failed to win any of their last six visits to the Estadio do Bessa since April 2009, will be looking to end this 16-year run and rekindle their quest for European football.
We say: Boavista 0-2 Santa Clara
Santa Clara will be licking their lips as they take on a struggling Boavista side who have plummeted to the bottom of the table, having managed just three points from the last 39 available. With their sights on returning to Europe this season, we expect Matos's men to go all out at the Estadio do Bessa and secure all three points this weekend.

SC Farense and AVS square off on Sunday in what could prove to be a pivotal battle in the Primeira Liga relegation scrap.
The home side, who are in 17th position in the table, sit four points adrift of their 16th-placed opponents.
We say: SC Farense 2-1 AVS
With both sides having earned morale-boosting draws in their previous outing, this could prove to be a competitive fixture between two teams on a high. Despite sitting lower in the table, we are going to side with Farense, who may throw caution to the wind in the closing stages if the game is tight.

Braga make the trip to Rio Ave on Sunday searching for the victory which will keep them in the hunt for third place in the Primeira Liga table.
At a time when the visitors are the form team in the division, Rio Ave are down in 11th position and in need of a result to edge away from a relegation scrap.
We say: Rio Ave 1-2 Braga
With a draw against Porto on their recent record, Rio Ave will have belief that they can earn another positive result against one of the big four. Nevertheless, we have to back Braga for this contest, particularly in a tight game given how they have churned out victories of late.
