Struggling Nacional will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Vitória SC in the upcoming league round. It’s 18th vs 6th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
- Nacional have the most conceded goals (47) in Primeira Liga
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Nacional form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Primeira Liga this season. Nacional, who have the most conceded goals (47) in Primeira Liga, have only managed 3 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses from their games here at Estádio da Madeira. All in all it has been a very rough period for Nacional who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Boavista, 75 days ago. The home stadium (Estádio da Madeira) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Nacional it's been a house of straw as the last five games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?
Nacional are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Tondela. Before that game, the home loss against Porto with the scoreline 0-1.
Nacional has scored 16 league goals at home this season, in 14 matches. Nacional have conceded 25 from these games.
Vitória SC form and stats
The visitors are W5-D4-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Primeira Liga. Bitter travels for Vitória as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Belenenses match.
Two away games in a row for Vitória SC, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Porto in the Primeira Liga. That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Santa Clara.
A new game in only four days for Vitória, the Primeira Liga home match versus Moreirense. Busy days.
Vitória SC are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 14 away goals from 13 games (in the league). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Vitória SC have seen the ball go into their own net 13 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
The last H2H meeting was Vitória SC - Nacional 3-1, played this season. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's four Nacional victories, two draws and four Vitória SC wins.
