Maritimo Preview – Can Maritimo keep revival going?
Monday night’s hosts, Maritimo, have timed their great escape and subsequent revival to perfection as the hosts have picked up three wins on the trot in the Primeira Liga to pull them safely away from the relegation battle below them.
This recent upturn in form shouldn’t be under-estimated either as the hosts have recorded wins against 2nd placed Benfica, along with victories against Santa Clara and Boavista which has helped Maritimo into a more respectable looking 12th place on the Primeira Liga ladder and more importantly, put the hosts 10 points clear of the bottom two.
Form on home turf at their Estádio dos Barreiros has also picked up too with just two defeats out of their last 12 matches amidst an overall home record which stands at a reasonable looking 5-6-4 21/18, and they’ll be confident that they can give Rio Ave a run for their money here.
Rio Ave Preview – Can Rio Ave stay in top six hunt?
Rio Ave are another side that must pick up all three points this Monday evening and hope that 4th placed Sporting Braga implode in the final three matches of this Portuguese top flight season as Rio Ave also look to keep their dwindling hopes of a possible top four finish alive here.
The visitors currently occupy 5th place in the Primeira Liga but find themselves six points behind their rivals for a European spot, Sporting Braga, prior to this tough looking trip to face a rejuvenated Maritimo outfit.
Rio Ave have themselves been impressive though in recent times as the visitors have collected six wins out of their last eight matches on their travels within an overall equally reasonable looking away record which stands at 8-3-4 19/13, so they’ll fancy their chances of picking up something from this encounter but may fall short in collecting all three points.
