It's early days in the Primeira Liga and both Moreirense and Marítimo are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Moreirense form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Moreirense's two home games in the Primeira Liga so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Parque Desportivo Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas.
Moreirense drew their last game, 0-0 away at Belenenses (placed 10th). In the match before that, Moreirense hosted Boavista and drew the game 1-1.
Early season league goal statistics from Moreirense's 2 home games: 3 goals, 1 conceded.
Marítimo form and stats
Things could have gone better for Marítimo in their Primeira Liga away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.
Marítimo might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Portimonense proved too strong as Marítimo slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Estádio dos Barreiros. Preceding that game was the away victory against Porto with the score of 3-2.
3 goals so far away for Marítimo, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 4. All from 2 league matches away.
Head 2 Head
Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Moreirense won three games, two matches ended with a draw and Marítimo has five wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: four / sixTop Goalscorers
