Gil Vicente Preview – Can Gil Vicente sign off with a win?
Following a run of three straight wins on the trot in the Primeira Liga, Gil Vicente were sent crashing back down to earth with a 1-0 defeat away from home at Belenenses, but they return to the more familiar surroundings of their Estádio Cidade de Barcelos for this final home match of the season against Pacos Ferreira.
Gil Vicente had previously picked up three wins on the trot with victories over Rio Ave, Vitoria Guimaraes and Tondela, and the hosts have done just enough to stay out of trouble this term as they occupy a creditable 9th place on the Primeira Liga ladder.
Indeed, Gil Vicente have avoided being dragged down to the lower half of the table thanks to a solid record at home which stands at 7-6-3 23/18 and along with also winning their last three matches on the trot at home, they’ve also won the last three encounters on the trot at home against Pacos Ferreira too.
Pacos Ferreira Preview – Can Pacos Ferreira end Gil Vicente’s dominance?
A 2-1 home win against relegation-threatened Portimonense ended a run of two matches without a win in the Portuguese top flight for Friday’s visitors, Pacos Ferreira, and they’ll be keen to sign off with a win at Gil Vicente and in turn put an end to the recent dominance that the hosts have had over their visitors.
Having also won four of their last six matches away from home, Pacos Ferreira look a tough proposition here as they’ve collected wins on the road at Desportivo Aves, Rio Ave, Tondela and Vitoria Setubal although it should be noted that three of these four wins were against teams sitting in the bottom half of the league.
If Pacos Ferreira are to sign off this season with another win on the road, they’ll need to achieve what they’ve failed to do in each of their last three visits to the Estádio Cidade de Barcelos, which is to beat Gil Vicente in their own backyard.
