FC Rio Ave - run after their own expectations

In recent years the club has always been one of the contenders for an international starting place. 2 times in the last 3 years they reached the 5th place in the table. In the current season, however, they are still lagging behind their own expectations.

After 15th match days they are only in 10th place in the table. They have been able to collect 15 points so far and the balance sheet is only 3 wins, 6 draws and 6 defeats. Your clear weakness this season is the offensive. With only 11 goals they represent the 3rd worst attack line in the league. The defense conceded only one more goal than the opponent, namely 18 in number.

The previous appearances away from home are difficult to assess, because although they could only win a single away game, they are on a good 10th place in the away table. This is mainly due to the 4 games that ended in a draw. That's why only 3 away games were lost. Only 4 goals were scored in these 8 games and therefore only 0.5 goals per game. In 4 away games you were completely without a goal. Never once have they scored more than one goal away from home. The current form is also not particularly good, because you could only win one of the last 9 league games.

Betting tip and forecast

FC Porto is one of the best teams the Portuguese league has to offer. They are currently in 2nd place in the table. In their own stadium they won 6 out of 8 games and only one was lost. Anything but a home win against tables 10.- Rio Ave would therefore be a big surprise.

Tip 1 is not particularly lucrative, however. In 4 of 8 home games they were able to lead at halftime, not once were they behind. We would therefore recommend a betting tip on "Team 1 Half Time 1". The weak offensive from Rio Ave also suggests few goals. A low over / under bet would be perfect for this.
