Farense form and stats

Farense was eliminated in the 2nd round last season in the League Cup.

Farense are steadily winning Segunda Liga games and points here at Estádio de São Lúis. 4 wins, 3 draws and 0 defeats is the summary from 7 games.

The club members hope that Farense will fight back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-6 away loss in the League Cup fixture against Sporting CP.

Previous to that game, a Segunda Liga home match hosting Trofense in a game that was won 3-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Farense perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Farense as a small favourite), we find 11 games. Farense has won 3 of these, drawn 5 and lost 3.

A decent goal production from Farense in their home games so far, with 13 goals from 7 league matches.

Marítimo form and stats

Last season their League Cup adventure ended in the 1st round.

There's been little loot from Marítimo's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 7 away games in the Liga Portugal. Marítimo only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.

Marítimo are looking to quickly end their 242 minutes long goal drought in the Liga Portugal.

This game can not go any worse than the previous one, a League Cup home loss versus Rio Ave with 0-1 on the scoreboard.

Prior to that match, the Marítimo manager Henriques faced defeat when travelling to Vitoria Guimaraes and losing 0-1.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 10 similar matches played by Marítimo in our archives, and the results are: 4 wins for Marítimo, 2 draws and 4 defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Marítimo as they have only managed to score 4 times from 7 away games in the league. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Marítimo concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.

Head 2 Head

Previous five meetings featuring these teams: Farense won two, Marítimo triumphed in two and we saw one draw. two games with more than 2,5 goals, three matches with less than 2,5 goals.
