Rio Ave vs Pacos de Ferreira Team News

Last time out in the league, Rio Ave were in action against title-chasing FC Porto in a fiercely-contested affair at the Estadio do Dragao. Headed into the game as slight underdogs given the stature of the opposition in question, Rio Ave managed to salvage a point.

As expected, Rio Ave went behind early in the game as Mbemba fired Porto ahead just inside 18 minutes. Following the goal, the home side continued to press forward in numbers in search of another goal to put the game to bed.

Creating a couple of gilt-edged chances, they failed to double to their lead and were ultimately pegged back by the visiting contingent. The travelling supporters were sent into raptures in the 32nd minute when Taremi latched onto a perfectly-weighted ball from Diogo Figueiras to bring scores level. Ultimately, both sides had to settle for a point at the sound of the final whistle.

Pacos de Ferreira, on the other hand, were handed a difficult game against Vitoria Guimaraes on the last match-day and required to stage an unlikely upset. Though expected to be defeated comprehensively, Pepa’s charges put forth a spirited performance, limiting their superior opposition to just two goals.

Beginning the game on the front foot, Vilacondenses went ahead just inside ten minutes, setting them up nicely for a potential win. However, Guimaraes completed the comeback in the second half with two goals from Joao Carlos to condemn Ferreira to yet another defeat.

For this fixture, Rio Ave have to be considered huge favorites for the win. The home advantage alone, should be enough to spur Carvalhal’s charges to a win over this weak Pacos de Ferreira on Sunday.

The visitors have been on a meagre run of form away from home with 2 wins and 7 losses from their previous 11 excursions. They have conceded a whopping 20 goals in that time, magnifying this side’s defensive frailties.

In sharp contrast, Rio Ave are on a stellar six-game unbeaten run in the league, their last three home fixtures ending in draws. They registered twelve goals in that time, conceding the same number of goals down the other end of the pitch.

However, given that the visitors are in dire need of points to steer clear of the drop-zone, they will be itching to salvage a positive result in this fixture.
