Moreirense vs CS Marítimo

Moreirense's meeting with Maritimo on 14 September brings together two sides still searching for early-season rhythm in the Primeira Liga. Moreirense sit 11th with four points from four rounds, while newly promoted Maritimo have made a steadier return to the top flight in 7th, making this a meaningful chance for both to build momentum in the table's lower half. Moreirense arrive off a 2-1 defeat at Porto, having collected just one win so far, a 1-0 victory over Casa Pia settled by a stunning curled strike from Francisco Domingues. Guilherme Schettine remains their main attacking outlet. Maritimo's promising start has stalled too, capped by a 3-0 home defeat to Benfica, though top scorer Raphael Guzzo has kept them dangerous going forward. Historically Maritimo hold a slight edge in this fixture, winning 10 of 25 meetings to Moreirense's 8, and taking 3 of the last 5. Our prediction: 1-1
