Estrela vs Estoril Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the Liga Portugal on Friday, 25 August 2023.
Estrela have advanced it to the topflight after delivering decent performances in the last Liga Portugal 2 season. They claimed the third position at the end of that season and played the relegation match-ups to Liga Portugal.
Going on, they lost their opening two matches. The team will have a tight test on Friday as the team faces Estoril as their visiting rivals. Estoril won and lost one apiece of their two league matches.
They have met just twice in the past. The meetings were recorded at 2004 and 2007 and none of them were Liga Portugal outings.
Estrela won those two meetings scoring 0-1 in both the matches.
Estrela is having an unimpressive form at home of late. They lost three of their last four home outings. This includes their previous season displays too.
Meanwhile, Estoril follows an average form on the road at present. They were unbeaten in two of the last three road trips.
On top of that Estoril have managed to win one match this season. And their 4-3 defeat against Arouca was a very close one as two of their goals were disallowed. By the looks of things, we expect a win for Estoril on Friday.
Three of the last five matches of Estoril were low-scoring. The recent high-scoring home matches of Estrela were from Liga Portugal 2. in that case, we don’t expect this match to have goals over 2.5 ft.
Estoril sealed a clean sheet display in three of their last five matches. On top of that Estrela failed to score in both the outings at the beginning of this season. Thus, we expect a one-sided affair on Friday.
Estoril looks to have a better form when compared with Estrela’s at the moment. The losing display of Estrela forces us to back Estoril here.
Therefore, we expect a win for Estoril. While placing it as the main tip, we like to back the under 2.5 goals as the second tip.
