Arouca vs Vizela Prediction & Betting Tips (28 January)

Before playing next match, Arouca had been on a dreadful run of form on their own patch, drawing three and losing six of their previous nine top-flight fixtures, so a visit from Vizela is hardly ideal. Speaking of the defending champions, although they have not been the force of old recently, they have still triumphed four times in seven Liga Portugal trips.

When Vizela come calling, under 3.5 goals inevitably follows, with this being the case in each of their previous 17 away matches at the top table of the Liga Portugal. Given that 16 of the most recent 19 Arouca home games at this level have followed the same pattern, it would come as a surprise to see anything different when the two teams square off against each other.

Over the course of their last 14 home games at the top table of the Liga Portugal, Arouca have both scored and conceded during the same 91 minutes on no fewer than ten occasions, so they have been the epitome of consistency on this particular front. Not only that, but eight of the most recent 14 Vizela away matches in Liga Portugal have followed the same pattern.
