Portimonense form and stats

Portimonense's struggle is real here at Estádio Municipal de Portimão with only 13 points collected from 15 Primeira Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-4-8.

In their previous game, the manager Brito led his Portimonense to a defeat away at Porto. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estádio Municipal de Portimão. As you see from the result above, Portimonense suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one. The versatile forward Aponza bettered all teammates in that fixture and managed a match rating of 6.63 out of 10. Aponza dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Famalicao.
