THE PREDICTION
A 5-1 thrashing at the hands of FC Porto leaves 17th-placed Farense in deep trouble and knowing that defeat at home to Tondela could see them automatically relegated should other results not go their way. In contrast, victory may take them out of the bottom two when considering that 15th-placed Rio Ave sit just three points ahead of Farense and face FC Porto themselves later in the day. Tondela meanwhile, need just a point to guarantee their Portuguese top flight status for another season. Therefore, the visitors are expected to keep bodies behind the ball and take no unnecessary risks that could see Farense capitalise. With neither side having won in their last four league matches, backing a draw here may prove the smart play, as a lack of confidence within both teams is likely to see either Farense or Tondela fail to close this game out should they wind up taking the lead at any stage.
