Boavista are welcoming Marítimo for another important game after their 1-2 result against 3rd-placed Sporting Braga.
- Boavista have the most dropped points from leading position (20) in Primeira Liga
- Marítimo have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
It's no vacation for neither Boavista nor Marítimo as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Boavista form and stats
4-3-7 (win-draw-lost) are the Primeira Liga numbers at home for Boavista so far this season.
Boavista are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Sporting Braga. Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Paços de Ferreira.
Boavista's goalkeeper Léo Jardim was extremely busy against Sporting Braga, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning eight saves.
The Boavista fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 14 matches. 20 goals have been conceded.
Marítimo form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Marítimo so far with only 13 points returning home. The records show 4-1-9 (win-draw-lose). Marítimo seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Marítimo go into this game after a win, the home game against Rio Ave that ended 1-0. Prior to that match, the Marítimo manager J. Velázquez Santiago faced defeat when travelling to Belenenses and losing 0-2.
A quick return to home after this game, as Marítimo are hosting Sporting Braga in the Primeira Liga only four days away.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Marítimo have scored 14 goals in 14 league games away. As opposed to that, Marítimo have seen the ball go into their own net 20 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
These teams' last encounter with each other was the Marítimo - Boavista 0-0 earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Boavista won four games, two matches ended with a draw and Marítimo has four wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / sevenTop Goalscorers
