Arouca vs Estoril Prediction: A draw will be good result for both teams

Arouca and Estoril will play in Primeira Liga Portugal for the first time in 2023. Both teams have entered in a bad form in the league matches recently. Arouca is having a good season so far but I can't see it winning this match. Sure, the host have been good so far and Estoril is in a bad moment but Estoril have already shown this season that they are a good team with a lot of quality all over the pitch.

Arouca

Arouca is in 10th place with 19 points, 5 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats. Arouca was defeated in the last league match against Porto with 5:1 and it surely left some consequences on the players. At home Arouca plays pretty well and has 3 wins, a draw and 3 defeats.

Estoril

Estoril is having a rough season so far and plays well below expectations. Currently, Estoril is in 14th place with 16 points, only 4 points away from the dangerous zone. The team has 4 wins, 4 draws, and 5 defeats. They are winless in the last 4 matches in the league and this will be their first league match since November. As a visitor, Estoril has 3 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats.

Expert Betting Tips

Although Arouca is in better form and is playing at home, I think Estoril can win at least a point here. Both teams have problems in the defense so it can be expected that we will see goals from both teams. As both teams have 2 defeats in a row each, a draw will be enough for them to start the year in a good way.
