The AI-powered pre-game prediction favored a Rio Ave win, which ultimately proved incorrect.
Rio Ave's recent form has been inconsistent, with a mix of wins and losses. Their upcoming match against Sporting CP in the Taca de Portugal will be a tough test, especially considering their recent loss to them in the same competition. Santa Clara, on the other hand, has also experienced fluctuating form, with two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five matches. Their next league match against Arouca presents an opportunity to improve their standing.

Regarding Rio Ave previous games, they have lost 4 of the last 5 matches. Whereas, Santa Clara, only lost 2 of their last 5 matches.
