Chaves form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Liga Portugal game of the season here at Estádio Municipal Eng. Manuel Branco Teixeira. Last season these fans witnessed 6 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses from Chaves's 17 home games.

Chaves are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-5 away versus Farense. Chaves were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Defender Langa got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.34/10. Langa won 8 of 8 duels.

Preceding that match was the home game against Sporting Braga that was lost 2-4.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Chaves have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 17 matches with the results: Won 7, drawn 6 and lost 4.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Chaves at home in the league. 2 on target and 4 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
