An important duel in the bottom section of the 2. Division: Group B, with both Coimbrões and Vila Real experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 13th and the visitors in 17th place.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Coimbrões form and stats

3-1-5 (win-draw-lost) are the 2. Division: Group B numbers at home for Coimbrões so far this season.

The fans are hoping that Coimbrões will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 3-4 away loss in the 2. Division: Group B game against Gondomar (placed 11th). Before that, Coimbrões drew at home versus Ginásio Figueirense.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Vila Real form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Vila Real, who have the most conceded goals (28) away in 2. Division: Group B, so far with only 0 points returning home. The records show 0-0-10 (win-draw-lose). The manager J. Pinto Tomé Santos is not happy with the away performances in the 2. Division: Group B so far, as all 10 matches have been lost. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 14 away games in a row.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a 2. Division: Group B home defeat versus Espinho with 0-1 on the scoreboard. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Castro Daire wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.

Goals are few and far between in Vila Real's away league games. Only 5 goals from 10 travels. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Vila Real's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 28 goals in 10 travels.
