Moreirense form and stats

The story so far in the Primeira Liga for Moreirense at their home stadium (Parque Desportivo Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas) is 3 wins, 10 draws and 3 defeats. With ten home Primeira Liga games in a row without a win, the Moreirense fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Santa Clara game long ago, can be stopped today.

In their previous game, the manager V. Freire De Seabra led his Moreirense to a defeat in the Primeira Liga match away at Sporting Braga. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Parque Desportivo Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas. Lazar Rosić, defender, was given a rating of 7.22/10 in that game, top of the team. Rosić won 5 of 6 duels. Heartbreak for Moreirense in their last match as Sporting Braga's J. Novais scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

In the preceding match a 2-1 victory visiting Portimonense.

The Moreirense fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 21 in 16 matches. Moreirense's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 23 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
