Gil Vicente - Arouca predictions

Gil Vicente are definitely more likely to win, though all three possible results are quite reasonable to expect. This makes it hard to make reliable betting predictions when this match is concerned, though we may find some betting value.

Out of their home field and heading into this match as underdogs, Arouca would need to play their best to have a hope of winning. That said, even a draw would be a positive outcome, and all three results are quite possible.

Both Gil Vicente fans and punters will have been rather delighted by their last Primeira Liga match. Their Moreirense win was a bettor’s dream, knowing it was an odds-defying HT/FT victory.

The away team’s most recent away brawl was quite a scrape, and they barely managed to walk away with a draw. Most betting odds were against them, and few had much hope left when they fell behind in the first half. They managed to equalise before the final whistle, however, and secure a 1:1 drawn.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

We’ve seen some impressive offensive performances from Arouca in the past few weeks. Their latest 3 league outings were marked by more than 5 goals scored, which means this match is likely to confirm markets like BTTS and Over 5 Goals.

Surprisingly enough, the hosts already lost to Arouca once this season. This came as a bit of an upset, to say the least, considering they are widely believed to be the stronger team.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
