Predictions for the 29th round of the Primeira Liga, April 10-13
This preview compiles predictions for the matches of the 29th round of the Portuguese Championship. You can view all football predictions in the football section, and the full list of predictions for the Portuguese Championship on the Primeira Predictions page. The main intrigue in the tournament remains the battle for the championship. Porto, having dropped points in the last round, has significantly intensified it. This coming weekend, the giants face not the toughest opponents and cannot afford any slip-ups. Will there be any upsets?
Famalicão – Moreirense
The home team is unbeaten in six matches. In the last round of the championship, Famalicão took points from Porto (2:2). This is a quality performance that can propel the team further. Moreirense, on the other hand, is on a three-game losing streak and is clearly out of form. Moreover, the club hasn't scored in these matches. We believe that Famalicão deserves success in the upcoming game. We also have no doubt that they will score, and not just once. If they managed it against Porto, they should certainly do it against Moreirense.

Prediction for Famalicão – Moreirense
Bet: Home team individual total over 1.5 goals
ABC – Vitória Guimarães
The home team, doomed to relegation, is losing to almost everyone. Vitória, on the other hand, secured a big win in the last round and surely wants to take revenge on ABC for the defeat in the Portuguese Cup (0:1). It is also worth noting that the visitors won the first-round match with a score of 4:0. Do you see any intrigue in this match? It seems that the most standard option is the optimal one for betting.

Bet: Away win
Santa Clara – Rio Ave
The opponents in this match have gained good form. They cannot slow down, as they have not yet secured a comfortable position, being in the lower part of the table. It is worth noting that Santa Clara is strong in defense – they have not conceded in three of the last five matches. The team generally knows how to play against equal competitors, and Rio Ave is not always good away. In this case, we believe that the value of the points will force the clubs to play cautiously, and someone will fail to score.

Bet: Both teams to score (no)
Estrela – Sporting
The "Lions" continue their pursuit of the leader, and they are already close. Only five points remain to the first place, plus the...Sporting has a game in hand. We have no doubt about the favorite's victory, but we suggest considering another option. Estrela will play in front of their fans and must show their best. Considering that Sporting will play after a Champions League match, the hosts have a real chance to score. The fatigue of the giant might come into play. In the last two league matches, the visitors conceded against not the strongest opponents.

Bet: the hosts will score a goal
Alverca – Casa Pia
An interesting match that does not have a clear favorite, despite the odds. The teams are in similar form, and it's unlikely that either has a decisive advantage. Alverca has a cushion of points from the relegation zone, while Casa Pia is currently there. On the other hand, home advantage does not allow for complacency. A low-scoring scenario and cautious football are expected, considering Casa Pia's poor creativity in recent matches.

Bet: total under 2.5 goals
Braga – Arouca
The "Archbishops" need to hold onto the fourth spot in the table, although moving higher is no longer possible. Hence, it's clear that they need to win this home match. Arouca, on the other hand, has won two consecutive league matches, but it seemed somewhat isolated. The visitors have been too inconsistent this season. There are no intrigues in this match. The favorite must secure their win at home.

Bet: home win with a handicap (-1)
Benfica – Nacional
With their draw against Casa Pia in the last round, Benfica has started to raise the white flag in the title race. An unexpected slip-up occurred, indicating certain difficulties. Nacional, on the other hand, won their last match. The team continues to fight for survival and does not intend to give up. The visitors have been stable over the past month and maintain a handicap (+1.5). We believe that Nacional at least deserves a goal in the upcoming match.

Estoril – Porto
The hosts are wrapping up the season. It's difficult to climb higher, and they are far enough from the relegation zone. Estoril's last two defeats clearly signal that the team is slowing down. Porto, on the other hand, is just beginning their battle. The team drew in the last round, thus giving their rivals a chance. It's hard to see a second consecutive slip-up here. The motivation and class of the opponents are incomparable at the moment.
We believe in the favorite.

Tondela – Gil Vicente
Who needs success more in this match? Tondela is holding onto hopes of staying in the elite, while Gil Vicente is still fighting for a spot among the top four teams. The form of the opponents is hard to call optimal, but the visitors look slightly better. If you want to place a bet on this match, our betting sites portugal can help. The choice will be quite simple: we believe in a victory for Gil Vicente, who can overpower Tondela with their defense.

Round Summary
This round contains many events that are difficult to predict, especially as the championship approaches its final stages. We particularly recommend paying attention to the matches of Sporting and Benfica, where a single goal from the underdog is needed for the bet to go through. We believe these events carry less risk. And of course, we urge you not to forget about responsible gaming rules.
