An important duel in the bottom section of the Primeira Liga, with both Tondela and Desportivo Aves experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 14th and the visitors in 18th place.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Tondela form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Primeira Liga this season. Tondela have only managed 1 win, 5 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Estádio João Cardoso. Tondela are slowly digging their own grave here at Estádio João Cardoso with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Sporting CP match.
The spoils were shared in Tondela's previous game, also at home. Visiting Boavista (placed 11th) travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Vitoria Guimaraes (0-2).
Tondela aren't scoring a lot here at Estádio João Cardoso in the league, with only 7 goals from 12 games. Tondela have conceded 15 in these home matches.
Desportivo Aves form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Desportivo Aves, who have the most conceded goals (47) in Primeira Liga, so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-10 (win-draw-lose). Recent form does not give Desportivo Aves much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Tondela will be a tough nut to crack.
