Venue: Estádio do Rio Ave Futebol Clube (12815 seats)

Only a few games have been played in the Primeira Liga so far, with Rio Ave placed 5th and Tondela sitting in the 8th position.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Rio Ave form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Rio Ave's two home games in the Primeira Liga so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Estádio do Rio Ave Futebol Clube.

The home supporters saw a 1-1 draw versus Vitória Guimarães in the Primeira Liga last time out and are looking for a win here. In the preceding match a 3-2 victory visiting Sporting CP.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Rio Ave matches with similar probabilities have ended with 6 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats (from seven games).

Early season league goal statistics from Rio Ave's 2 home games: 6 goals, 2 conceded.

Tondela form and stats

Tondela are still undefeated on their travels in the Primeira Liga. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other.

Tondela delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Santa Clara (placed 9th) in their previous match; a Primeira Liga game. Prior to that result Tondela won their away game at Marítimo. The scoreline was 3-2.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Tondela when being an outsider away as they are today, we find four matches with the visitors losing 1 time, drawing 1 and winning 2 games.

3 goals so far away for Tondela, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Last eight meetings between the teams: Rio Ave won 2, Tondela won 2 and 4 draws. 5 games with over 2,5 goals, 3 matches with two goals or less.
