Estrela Amadora vs Famalicao
LISBON, Portugal (Interstat) — Estrela Amadora hosts Famalicao on Monday in a Primeira Liga matchup that pits a struggling home side against a visiting team that has shown resilience against tougher competition.
The game is scheduled for May 11, 2026, at Estrela Amadora’s home ground. Kickoff time has not been announced.
The most recent head-to-head between the clubs came Dec. 27, when Estrela Amadora won 3-2 on the road. That victory snapped a stretch of frustration for the home side, which has since struggled to find consistent form.
Estrela Amadora enters Monday’s match on a difficult run. The club lost 3-2 at Moreirense on May 2, its most recent outing. That result extended a pattern of narrow defeats. In its previous five matches, Estrela Amadora has lost four times, including a 2-1 loss to Porto on April 26 and a 1-0 defeat at Arouca on April 19. The one bright spot in that stretch came March 20, when Estrela Amadora routed Casa Pia 4-0. Otherwise, the team has lacked offensive punch, scoring one goal or fewer in six of its last eight contests.
Famalicao, by contrast, has been difficult to beat. The visiting team played Benfica to a 2-2 draw on May 2, a result that highlighted its recent trend of strong performances against top clubs. Famalicao is unbeaten in its last six matches, though draws have been common. The club played Sporting Braga to a 2-2 draw on April 19 and Porto to a 2-2 draw on April 4. It also earned a 1-0 win at Estoril on April 26 and a 2-1 win at Vitoria SC on March 14.
Famalicao’s only loss in its last 11 matches came Feb. 15, when Sporting Lisbon won 1-0. That stretch includes four wins, six draws and that single defeat.
Interstat’s game simulator projects a 1-1 draw Monday.
Both teams sit in the middle of the Primeira Liga standings, with Famalicao holding a points advantage. Estrela Amadora will look to replicate its December win over Famalicao, while the visitors aim to extend an unbeaten run that has defined the second half of their season.
