It's still early in the Primeira Liga season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Famalicão - Boavista preview!

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Famalicão form and stats

Famalicão have less points than they have played home games in the Primeira Liga so far. Their two previous attempts here have produced 1 point.

Famalicão travelled for their previous game, a trip to Farense that ended 3-3. In the match before that, Famalicão hosted Rio Ave and drew the game 1-1.

Famalicão salvaged the draw from a difficult situation against Farense, trailing 0-2 at one point. Not giving up resulted in Bruno Jordão equalizing. A goal frenzy last time out for Famalicão, with a total of 6 goals in the match against Farense. Fun stuff to watch!

This is expected to be a close game, with Famalicão perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Famalicão as a small favourite), we find six games. Famalicão has won five of these, drawn zero and lost one.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Famalicão at home in the league. 2 on target and 6 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
