Nacional form and stats

Last season, Nacional's League Cup journey ended in the 2nd round.

Nacional's struggle is real here at Estádio da Madeira with only 15 points collected from 17 Primeira Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 4-3-10. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Nacional to get some points in this home game.

Nacional's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Rio Ave. The goalie António Filipe was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 9.25 out of ten. Filipe stopped the opponent with twelve saves. António Filipe had a busy but productive day in the Rio Ave match. Despite making twelve saves the loss could not be prevented. Heartbreak for Nacional in their last match as Rio Ave's Carlos Mane scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

A Primeira Liga defeat was the result before that one, 0-3 away at Famalicao.

Nacional are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 19 goals in 17 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 30 goals have been conceded.

Estoril form and stats

They also participated in League Cup last season. This ended in the 1st round.

The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 10 wins, 4 draws and only 3 losses in the Segunda Liga.

Estoril had fun at their own home (Estádio da Madeira) last time out, beating Mafra 1-0. André Franco scored.

That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Mafra in the Segunda Liga.

Estoril have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 17 league away games 22 goals have been scored. It's not easy to score on Estoril as they have only conceded 11 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: five wins for Nacional, two draws and three wins for Estoril. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
