Marítimo won't feel too deflated by the 2-1 home defeat to Vitória Guimarães, given that their opponents sit a full 14 places above them in the league table. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 20 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Vitória Guimarães, who had 11 shots on goal with 5 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 10 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 13 games overall.
Despite picking up some valuable points from 2 wins, the 4 lost matches from 6 will be the main concern for them. Their form has been poor this season, losing 20 of 30 league games.
On an individual basis, André Vidigal will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Marítimo's last 6 league games.

Rio Ave will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 1-0 home win against Arouca. In that game they recorded 50 % of the possession, with 12 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 2 of their 11 shots on goal.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 8 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 7 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
