The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Rio Ave FC win or draw

Our top betting tip is Rio Ave FC to win or draw on the Double Chance market. What that means is Rio Ave FC, the home team, must win or draw for the bet to win, and we feel strongly that the match will end in one of those two outcomes.

We simply don't see Rio Ave FC losing to Porto. More than the gulf in quality between the two sides which is clear to see in the statistics, we also have a lot of belief in Rio Ave FC's ability to make home advantage count in this match.

👉 Our prediction is: over 9.5 corners

Rio Ave FC vs Porto figures to be a very up-and-down match between two aggressive sides, so the corners market is quite an attractive one to bet on.

And with odds of 1.53, we are eyeing the over 9.5 corners bet to hit, which means having 10 or more corners for both teams throughout the 90 minutes will win the bet.
