Gil Vicente vs Estoril tips and predictions

Struggle to separate the pair

There's not much between Gil Vicente and Estoril in the Liga Portugal. The hosts are in 13th place with 9 points, compared to their opponents who are in eigth place on 12 points.

All results are on the table here which is why the draw is a genuine contender. With goals being hard to come by in the build up to this one, this might not be a goal-fest. The draw is the pick from the match winner market.

Both sides have reasons to be confident of keeping things tidy. Gil Vicente have averaged 0.8 goals in their last 4 home starts which isn't great. Estoril have averaged 0.6 goals in their last 13 away campaigns.

In previous matches in this head-to-head 5 of the last 6 have been draws.

It would be nonsense to argue that the favourites are nailed on here. Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out in a war of attrition. It might not stand out but the BTTS No bet would be sensible.

Gil Vicente have drawn 6 of their last 13 matches on their own soil. They drew 2-2 with Rio Ave at home in September. Estoril have drawn 5 of their last 13 matches. They shared the spoils with Chaves last Saturday. It isn't a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to be circumspect about. The draw is the pick after what looks likely to be a close encounter.
