CF Estrela da Amadora vs FC Famalicão

Five matchdays into the 2026/27 Primeira Liga, Estrela da Amadora host Famalicão at Estádio José Gomes on September 5, and the early-season stakes are already clear. Estrela have made an unbeaten start and sit in the top half of the table, while Famalicão remain without a win and are eager to get their campaign moving. Estrela have drawn both league games so far, 2-2 with Sporting and 2-2 away at Alverca, with forward Antonetti scoring in each. Famalicão, rebuilt under returning coach Carlos Carvalhal, have taken just one point from three matches — a draw at Estoril followed by losses to Marítimo and Santa Clara. New arrival Paulo Moreira, signed from Estrela itself, adds an intriguing personal angle. The two sides split last season's meetings: Estrela won 3-2 away, before a goalless draw in the return fixture kept both clubs' bigger-picture ambitions alive. Our prediction: 2-1
