Notably, Arouca has been able to secure wins in their last two encounters in the Primeira Liga. On September 20,2025 and February 1st,2025 they secured important away wins with the scoreline of 1-2 in both instances.

Given their performance and that of their opponents, Arouca appears to have a slight upper hand in this fixture. Their home record also plays into their favour with the crowd at the Estádio Municipal de Arouca expected to cheer them on.

Nacional will be looking to spoil the party for Arouca and get a result that keeps them within touching distance of their hosts. They have been able to draw and secure wins in the past but will need to be at their best to get any points from this match.

The bookmakers are backing a low scoring game with not many goals expected. Arouca has a good chance of winning but the draw is also a likely outcome. Both teams will be looking to ensure they get a result that keeps them in the hunt for points and positions in the Primeira Liga table.
