Vitoria de Guimaraes welcome Alverca at Estadio Dom Afonso Henriques, Guimarães on Sunday, Dec 13 at 6:00 PM in a Primeira Liga fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Vitoria de Guimaraes come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Alverca, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Vitoria de Guimaraes and Alverca have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (4W–3D–3W). Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Vitoria de Guimaraes win or a draw looks most likely.
