In a tightly contested Portuguese Primeira Liga match on April 19, 2025, Arouca secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Estrela at the Estádio Municipal de Arouca. Dylan Nandín's goal in the 67th minute proved to be the difference. Arouca dominated possession with 56.5%, launching 19 total shots compared to Estrela's 8, and also forcing 5 saves from Estrela's goalkeeper. Despite the home side's attacking advantage, both teams struggled to maintain discipline, each accumulating four yellow cards and committing a similar number of fouls (17 for Arouca, 16 for Estrela).
The AI's pre-game prediction of an Arouca win was accurate, with a predicted win probability of 50.9%. The game wasn't expected to be balanced by the AI. This win breaks Arouca's recent form which had been inconsistent, with two losses and two draws in their last four league games before this victory. Estrela, similarly, has struggled, with three losses in their last five.
Looking ahead, Arouca faces Santa Clara away, a team they have historically performed well against, winning the last two head-to-head matches in the Primeira Liga by a 1-0 score. Santa Clara's recent form is also patchy, with two losses, two wins and a draw in their last 5 matches. Estrela, on the other hand, faces a daunting challenge against FC Porto at home, a team they have consistently lost to in recent encounters. Arouca showed more attacking initiative in this match compared to their previous games against Estoril or FC Famalicao, which ended in a draw and a loss, respectively. Estrela's performance mirrored their recent struggles, lacking the attacking edge to challenge Arouca's defense, similar to their loss against SC Farense.
