Gil Vicente form and stats

5-5-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Primeira Liga numbers at home for Gil Vicente so far this season. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

No payout for Gil Vicente in their previous match, an away game at Arouca that ended in defeat 1-2. Defender Cunha got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 8.1/10. Cunha scored one goal, hit two key passes and won 4 of 4 duels.

Before that, Gil Vicente drew at home versus Maritimo.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Vicente handle that role? We have found eight games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are two wins, four draws and two defeats.

Gil Vicente are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 20 goals in 14 games. Gil Vicente have conceded 16 in these home matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Moreirense form and stats

There's been little loot from Moreirense's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 14 away games in the Primeira Liga. Moreirense only have 1 win to counter their 8 defeats and 5 draws. It's looking increasingly bleak for Moreirense who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Arouca was the last time a defeat was avoided.

This fixture can not go any worse than the previous one, the home loss versus Vitoria Guimaraes with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Mota, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.41. Mota hit two key passes and won 4 of 9 duels.

Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Pacos de Ferreira's place.

Moreirense are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is four wins, four draws and four defeats. From a total of twelve matches.

The visitors have scored 9 goals from 14 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Moreirense's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 25 goals from these trips.
