Match Preview
AVS was only founded in May 2023, but the team quickly made its way into the top division. However, the transition to the elite league has been difficult, as reflected by the results in the first half of the season. After 15 rounds, AVS is in 15th place in the standings, just one point ahead of the teams in the relegation playoff zone.
In the most recent round, Vítor Campelus' side played an away match against Boavista and ended in a 0-0 draw. This was their third consecutive draw, and AVS has not won since mid-September. In eight home matches, the team has secured two victories and suffered three defeats.
On the other hand, Estrela Amadora is also fighting to avoid relegation. Currently, the club sits in 12th place with 15 points after 15 matches, just three points above the relegation zone. They managed to create some distance after winning their last match.
Estrela played against Rio Ave and won 1-0. This victory was their third in the last five rounds. However, the real problem for the team has been their away games. In seven away matches, Estrela has earned only one point, losing the other six.
