Chaves form and stats

The visitors are W5-D3-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Liga Portugal.

Chaves might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Sporting Braga proved too strong as Chaves slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Estádio Municipal Eng. Manuel Branco Teixeira.
