On Saturday, September 12, Academico Viseu will face Guimaraes in the sixth round of Liga Portugal. The match will kick off at 21:30 CET, and I am offering a bet on it.
Academico Viseu - Guimaraes: Match preview
Last season, Academico Viseu played in the second tier of Liga Portugal. The team finished second in the table and secured direct promotion to the top division of Portuguese football. Their start to the new season has been mediocre. The team have lost twice, drawn twice and only won their most recent match, when Academico Viseu beat Gil Vicente 1-0. Obviously, this season the team will try to fight for survival and remain in the top division of Portugal.
Guimaraes are a fairly stable and solid team by the standards of Liga Portugal. Last season, the team finished ninth, collecting 42 points in 34 rounds. In the new Liga Portugal season, Guimaraes have produced mediocre results. They have lost three times, drawn once and only beaten Nacional 1-0. With four points from five rounds, the team currently have a 3:5 goal difference and sit 11th in the table.
