Arouca vs Famalicao Prediction & Betting Tips (23 February)

The setback for Arouca who had the ambition to achieve a fifth victory in a row in the championship last weekend but he fell on a bone on the lawn of Casa Pia 1-0, although less well classified within the elite 12th. 7th in the ranking, the Yellow and Blue are quite serious at home with only one defeat in their last five games including two straight victories against Vizela 5-0 and especially against Porto 3-2. Famalicao is not left out by being in the retro in his evening opponent and having regained confidence following his victory last weekend against Rio Ave 2-1. An important match because Famalicao photo remained in a pitiful series of three days without finding a win, including two defeats recorded against Braga 1-2 and against the promoted and reigning D2 champion, Moreirense 1-0.

In addition, against Rio Ave, we will note his great reaction since he was trailing in the 14th minute of play. However, far from home, the visitors lack realism with only 2 victories in their last 12 matches on the road.

For this meeting, Arouca will undoubtedly be deprived of the important Kouassi (holder) who remains injured like Quaresma (not the former Portuguese international) and his Brazilian compatriot, Vitinho (rotation). Installed on the last step of the podium in the scorers' ranking, Mujica (13 goals) will probably be IN and will try to find the net after missing the target last weekend. A boy like Cristo Gonzalez (9 goals, 5 assists in the league) will probably also be present, just like Jason (5 goals, 2 goals). Opposite, Famalicao is spared from injuries since no player should miss the call for this part.

The only absentee last weekend for suspension (accumulation of yellow cards), Nathan (indisputable starter in the defensive sector) should logically make his return to competition. In the cross chase, he will cross midfielder Topic (suspended for the same cause). Author of the decisive double against Rio Ave, the Cadiz scorer (8 goals in the elite this season) will be on the trip like Chiquinho (3 pawns).
