The upcoming match between Estrela Amadora and Arouca in the Primeira Liga presents intriguing dynamics, particularly given the current standings and recent performances of both teams. Estrela Amadora has shown resilience at home, remaining unbeaten in their last four matches, yet they recently suffered a setback with a 1-0 loss to Farense . Conversely, Arouca is grappling with significant challenges; they sit at the bottom of the league table and are winless in their last five encounters. This context underscores a potential advantage for Estrela Amadora as they prepare for this critical fixture.
It seems Estrela have not learned from last season, when they avoided relegation by just one point, as their current results in the 2024-25 campaign indicate they are headed for another grueling battle to remain in the top flight. Jose Faria's side fell to their seventh defeat of the season last week when they were beaten 0-1 at the hands of bottom-dwellers Farense, which left them level on points with Nacional in the relegation playoff spot.Defenders Rocha (3/0), Galovic (1/0), midfielder Kouassi, and forward Araujo (8/2) should keep missing, alongside a couple of those who didn't play anyway so far in the season.
None of these two teams are shinning recently, but it still seems that Estrella looks brighter and more confident. Result-wise, the visitors are going from poor to worse and have very little to be positive about in their performances recently. The hosts do look far more competitive in front of their own fans.
Predicted & Confirmed Lineups
Estrela Amadora (predicted lineup): Bruno Brigido, Travassos, Miguel Lopes, Ferro, Ruben Lima, Leo Cordeiro, Jesus Igor, Jovane Cabral, Alan Ruiz, Nilton Varela, Rodrigo Pinho.

Despite these insights into team performance, analyses from multiple sources indicate that neither predictable lineups nor free live streaming options are readily available . While Estrela Amadora's manager may consider tactical adjustments following their recent defeat, injuries to key players such as Issiar Drame and Caio Santana could impact their strategy . Therefore, fans will need to rely on traditional broadcasting methods or official channels to follow this anticipated matchup.
