The Primeira Liga match between Famalicao and Boavista will take place at Municipal Stadium Famalicao on Tuesday at 1:45 am IST.
The 24th round of the Portuguese Primeira Liga wraps up on Monday with a match between Famalicao and Boavista at Famalicao’s stadium. Both teams are close in the lower half of the league table, just two points apart. We expect an exciting game as they both aim for a higher position in the league standings.
After finishing in eighth place in the previous season, Famalicao aimed for a strong performance in the current one to secure a spot in the Europa League. However, they haven’t met expectations and are currently far from qualifying for the Conference League, trailing by 20 points with a quarter of the season remaining. Their hopes suffered a setback with a 3-2 loss to Arouca, despite goals from Jhonder Cadiz and Gustavo Sa. Earlier, they ended a winless streak with a 2-1 comeback against Rio Ave. Famalicao has won six, drawn eight, and lost eight of their 22 Primeira Liga matches, placing them 10th in the standings alongside Farense, Gil Vicente, and Casa Pia, all with 26 points.
Boavista faced a tough defeat against Braga, losing 4-0 in their recent match. Braga dominated with goals from Abel Ruiz, Rodrigo Zalazar, and Simon Banza. Before that, Boavista ended a winless streak with a 2-1 victory against Estoril Praia but then lost 2-1 to Chaves. These results have dropped them to 12th place in the Primeira Liga, just two points above the relegation zone. They have a chance to move up to eighth place if they win against Famalicao. However, recent history doesn’t favor them, as they haven’t won any of their last three matches against Famalicao, losing twice last season and drawing once in September.
Famalicao probable starting lineup: Junior, Nathan, De Haas, Mihaj, Moura, Topic, Lacoux, Sorriso, Sa, Chiquinho, Araujo
Boavista probable starting lineup: Goncalves, Agra, Abascal, Sasso, Ferreira, Makouta, Lourenco, Perez, Reisinho, Watai, Bozenik
