Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Boavista vs. Porto

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Primeira Liga fixtures, including Boavista vs. Porto.


Pacos de Ferreira vs. Moreirense (Sunday, 3.30pm)

Moreirense have eight games remaining to save their Primeira Liga status, currently sitting 17th and two points away from safety after recording just four wins so far.

They travel to the Estadio da Capital do Movel on Sunday, when they will face Pacos de Ferreira, who occupy ninth spot and look set for a mid-table finish this season.

We say: Pacos de Ferreira 1-1 Moreirense


Pacos de Ferreira do not have much left to play for this season apart from their own pride, and with a Moreirense side coming to visit with everything to play for, that could give the visitors the upperhand.

With neither side showing free-flowing ability in the final third this season, there is unlikely to be a lot of goals in this encounter, but they are expected to cancel each other out with a goal a piece.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Gil Vicente vs. Maritimo (Sunday, 3.30pm)

Seeking to pick up their fourth win in five games on the road, Maritimo take a trip to the Estadio Cidade de Barcelos to face Gil Vicente in round 27 of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.

The Gilistas, meanwhile, are unbeaten in 11 games on the trot and will be looking to complete a league double over the visitors having picked up a 2-1 victory in October's reverse fixture.

We say: Gil Vicente 2-1 Maritimo


Gil Vincente are currently one of the most in-form sides in the division, claiming seven wins and four draws in their last 11 games. However, they face the tricky test of going up against a Maritimo side who have been solid away from home in recent weeks, claiming 12 points from the last 15 available. While we expect the visitors to put up a fight, we predict the Gilistas will keep their fine run going and come out victorious.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Benfica vs. Estoril (Sunday, 6.00pm)

Fresh off the back of booking their place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Benfica play host to Estoril Praia at the Estadio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica in round 30 of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.

The Canarinhos, meanwhile, will be desperate to get one over the hosts having failed to taste victory in any of the last 18 meetings between the sides since 2013.

We say: Benfica 2-0 Estoril Praia


Off the back of ending their three-game losing streak, Estoril Praia will head into Sunday's game with renewed confidence as they look to strengthen their position in the top half of the table. However, standing in their way is a spirited Benfica side who will be in full steam following their Tuesday's Champions League triumph. We are backing Benfica to extend their dominance over the Canarinhos and come away with all three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Portimonense vs. Braga (Sunday, 8.00pm)

Fresh off the back of progressing to the quarter-finals of the Europa League, Braga take a trip to the Estadio Municipal de Portimao to square off against Portimonense on Sunday.

The Portimao-based outfit, on the other hand, head into the game on a run of 12 games without a win across all competitions and will be seeking to end this dry spell.

We say: Portimonense 1-2 Braga


While Braga have struggled to grind out results in the Primeira Liga in recent weeks, they will fancy their chances of ending this dry spell as they face an opposing side who they are unbeaten against in 15 consecutive encounters. Portimonense last won a league game back in December and we predict the visitors extend this poor run by coming away with all three points on Sunday.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Boavista vs. Porto (Sunday, 8.45pm)

Still licking their wounds following their Europa League exit, Porto take a trip to the Estadio do Bessa where they lock horns with Boavista in round 27 of the Primeira Liga on Sunday.

Unbeaten in each of the last 16 meetings between the sides since 2014, the Dragoes will feel confident of returning to winning ways and extending their lead at the top of the league standings.

We say: Boavista 0-3 Porto


Following their Europa League exit, Porto will head into Sunday's game seeking to restore some pride and continue their charge for the league title. Looking at the past results in the history of this fixture and the gulf in class and quality between the two sides, we are backing Porto to come out with all three points unscathed.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.
