Nacional welcome Vitoria de Guimaraes at Estadio da Madeira, Funchal on Sunday, Jan 31 at 6:00 PM in a Primeira Liga fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.
Nacional come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 1D 1L). Vitoria de Guimaraes travel out of form (1W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Nacional head into this on the back of a defeat, while Vitoria de Guimaraes arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
In 10 previous meetings, Nacional lead 3–5 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Nacional won 0–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.6 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Nacional a slight edge, but Vitoria de Guimaraes are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
