Belenenses hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 15 points and a 15th position in the Primeira Liga table. Visiting Vitória FC holds 9th place with 19 pts.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Belenenses form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Primeira Liga this season. Belenenses, who have the most conceded goals (15) at home in Primeira Liga, have only managed 2 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses from their games here at Estadio Nacional do Jamor. Belenenses has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager P. Ribeiro and the players.
The fans are hoping that Belenenses will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Primeira Liga game against Gil Vicente (placed 8th). Before that game, the home loss against Sporting Braga with the scoreline 1-7.
This is expected to be a close game, with Belenenses perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Belenenses as a small favourite), we find ten games. Belenenses has won 1 of these, drawn 4 and lost 5.
Belenenses have scored 6 league goals here from 7 matches, not a lot. Belenenses are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (15 from 7 played).
Vitória FC form and stats
Vitória FC have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Primeira Liga, after 1-2-4 (7 played).
Vitória FC failed to get anything from their last game, a Primeira Liga home match vs Sporting CP (placed 4th) that ended with defeat 1-3. A 0-3 defeat away at Famalicao before that.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found twelve similar matches played by Vitória FC in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for Vitória FC, 6 draws and 4 defeats.
The visitors have scored 4 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Vitória FC have conceded 12 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
