We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Santa Clara form and stats
Santa Clara, who have the the worst goal difference (-10) in Primeira Liga, have played 4 Primeira Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-2-1 (wins-draws-losses).
Happy days for Santa Clara in their previous game, a Taça De Portugal match away at Uniao de Leiria that ended with a 2-0 victory.
Before that, Santa played out a Primeira Liga draw 1-1 when visiting Vizela.This is expected to be a close game, with Santa Clara perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Santa as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Santa Clara has won six of these, drawn two and lost three.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Santa, as the League Cup home game vs Porto is only three days away.
Santa Clara are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 4 games. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Santa with 8 goals conceded in these matches.
Famalicão form and stats
0 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Famalicão playing as the away team in the Primeira Liga this season.
It's the second away game in a row for Famalicão, but there's smiles all around after the 4-0 victory versus Academica in the Taça De Portugal last time out. As mentioned above, Famalicão was the only team on the pitch versus Academica in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.
A loss against Vitoria Guimaraes was the result prior to that, in a Primeira Liga home game.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 14 similar matches played by Famalicão in our archives, and the results are: ten wins for Famalicão, two draws and two defeats.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The League Cup trip to Sporting CP.
Famalicão are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 5 away goals from 4 games (in the league). The Famalicão manager I. Abreu Vieira has some worries about the defense as 9 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's five Santa Clara victories, zero draws and five Famalicão wins. Over/under statistics; four of these games ended with three goals or more, six matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
