Gameweek 21 in the Primeira Liga will draw to a close with Gil Vicente playing host to Vizela on Tuesday afternoon. The hosts are currently in 11th place in the league standings, while the visitors are at the bottom of the table. Gil Vicente will be looking to bounce back from their Taca de Portugal disappointment in midweek, where they were knocked out of the competition 3-1 by Vitoria de Guimaraes in the last eight. That result followed a 3-0 league defeat to Benfica last weekend, which left them on 22 points after 20 league games, eight points clear of the drop, and two points behind the sides in the top half of the table. While the Roosters’ overall form this season has by no means been incredible, their home record has been. In ten home league matches this term, the hosts have only lost once and head into this match unbeaten in their last eight, including four wins and four losses. As such, they are the clear favourites in this match. 

Meanwhile, after a solid mid-table finish last season, Vizela have found it much more difficult this term and head into Tuesday’s encounter rooted to the bottom of the league table. They have managed only 13 points in 20 league games with a record of just two wins, seven draws and 11 losses. Like their opponents, Vizelensesalso bowed out of the Taca de Portugal in midweek, beaten 2-1 by Benfica. That result took them to five defeats in a row in all competitions, including four league losses. They have also failed to win any of their last four matches on the road and were beaten 5-0 in their last outing against Arouca. However, Vizela did win the reverse fixture 1-0 are are unbeaten in their last three against this opponent.
