Match Preview
Vitória Guimarães is traditionally considered one of the top five teams in Portugal, but it rarely manages to outpace Braga, Sporting, Porto, or Benfica. This season, however, the "Conquerors" have struggled to even secure a top-5 position.
After 11 rounds, Vitória Guimarães sits in 6th place with 18 points. They are 2 points behind Braga and 6 points behind the surprising Santa Clara. In their last match, Vitória Guimarães lost 0-1 to Santa Clara. In the last 5 Primeira Liga matches, Vitória Guimarães has won only once and drawn 3 times, which has pushed them down the table.
In the UEFA Conference League, Vitória Guimarães played a 1-1 draw against Astana away on Thursday, but before that, they won all three of their group-stage matches, securing a spot in the knockout rounds.
Gil Vicente, after 11 matches, is in 11th place in the Primeira Liga with just 10 points. The team has won only 2 matches this season, and the last 3 games ended in losses: 2-3 to Moreirense, 1-2 to Boavista, and 1-2 to Santa Clara.
It’s likely that Gil Vicente will be fighting relegation, as they are only 2 points clear of the relegation zone.
