THE PREDICTION
Santa Clara ended a run of seven matches without a win in the Primeira Liga as they overcame Desportivo Aves last time out. They host Rio Ave as they look for back-to-back wins but with goals an issue for the hosts as well as the visitors in more recent games, a low-scoring encounter is likely.
