In a Portuguese Primeira Liga match held on April 5, 2025, FC Famalicao defeated Arouca 2-1 at the Estádio Municipal de Arouca. The AI-powered pre-game prediction favored Arouca, incorrectly forecasting a home win; it did not expect a balanced game. The match saw both teams convert penalty kicks, with Oscar Aranda putting Famalicao ahead in the 35th minute and Henrique Araújo equalizing for Arouca in the 71st minute. Mirko Topic secured the victory for Famalicao with a goal in the 76th minute.
Despite Arouca dominating possession with 58.5% and registering more shots (15 vs. 6) and shots on target (8 vs. 4), Famalicao's clinical finishing proved decisive. Arouca committed slightly more fouls (17 vs. 16) and received fewer yellow cards (3 vs. 5). This result marks a significant win for Famalicao, building on their recent 4-1 victory against AVS, while Arouca struggles to find consistency, having lost 2-1 to Braga in their previous match.
Considering their recent form, Famalicao will be confident heading into their next game against Estoril, especially given Estoril's mixed results, including a recent 3-0 win against AVS but inconsistent performances before that. Arouca, on the other hand, faces a daunting challenge against Benfica, who are on a winning streak in the Primeira Liga, with their last defeat being in the Champions League against Barcelona. Looking at the head-to-head record, Arouca has struggled against Benfica, losing all of their last five matches. This game continues Arouca's trend of struggling against teams with higher ratings, as well as Famalicao's form against teams of similar strength.
