Rio Ave vs Santa Clara Preview & Prediction | 2022-23 Portuguese Primeira Liga | 02-10-2022
THE PREDICTION
Following promotion last season, Rio Ave come into this on the back of a 2-2 draw away to Gil Vicente, in their most recent outing, before the international break. The home team have won just one of their opening seven matches and that was against reigning champions Porto. They now face a Santa Clara side that come into this on the back of just one win of their own so far this season. A draw would appear the likeliest outcome for this one between two seemingly evenly matched sides.
