Nacional - Rio Ave betting tips and odds

Kickoff starts at 20:00 on 19/05/2021 played @ Estadio da Madeira

The game is heavily lopsided in the visitors’ favour – for instance, most bookies are offering 5.80 odds on a home win. The hosts are no doubt in a difficult situation and don’t have much hope of overcoming Rio Ave.

Though we can’t say for certain, all signs are pointing towards Rio Ave as the final winner of this showdown. Nacional have been known to surprise us from time to time, though, so the match isn’t a done deal.

Nacional are coming on the back of a crushing 3:0 away defeat at the hands of Famalicão . The odds were against them from the start, and they never managed to recover from the early lead Famalicão grabbed.

It was hard for Rio Ave fans to feel optimistic going into their previous home match. Despite playing on home turf, their opponents Porto were so heavily favoured that even the draw at half time can be considered a minor success for Rio Ave. Ultimately, though, they lost the match hard (0:3).

Nacional have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Primeira Liga matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, Rio Ave’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

Despite being favourites, Rio Ave couldn’t manage to secure a victory the last time they played against Nacional. This gives the hosts some precedent when it comes to beating the odds, but it’s not a strong case.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.88. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.

Betting tip (stake: 8/10): Under 2,5 1.88 at Betway
