Belenenses form and stats

Belenenses's results here at Estadio Nacional do Jamor in the Primeira Liga have been very modest with 2 victories, 1 draw and 5 defeats. It's trouble wherever Belenenses are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. The Belenenses manager P. Ribeiro might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Belenenses are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 238 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by S. Varela).

The Belenenses fans got no joy from their last match, a Primeira Liga game also here at Estadio Nacional do Jamor: A 0-1 defeat against Vitória FC (placed 9th). Heartbreak before that as Belenenses lost 0-2 at Gil Vicente's place.

Belenenses have scored 6 league goals here from 8 matches, not a lot. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Belenenses with 16 goals conceded in these matches.
