Boavista have played 10 Liga Portugal games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-3-2 (wins-draws-losses).

In their previous game, the manager Petit led his Boavista to a defeat away at Estoril. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estádio do Bessa Século XXI. The first loss after going undefeated in three league rounds. Bracali had a busy but productive day in the Estoril match. Despite making eleven saves the loss could not be prevented.

A 2-2 draw away before that, with Santa Clara the opponent.

A decent goal production from Boavista in their home games so far, with 15 goals from 10 league matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Boavista defense is not exactly impregnable. 15 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
