Tondela form and stats

The home team returns to Estádio João Cardoso after sharing the points with Vitória Setúbal on their last time out; the Primeira Liga game ended 0-0. Heartbreak before that as Tondela lost 0-1 at Penafiel's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Tondela perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Tondela as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Tondela has won 5 of these, drawn 4 and lost 4.
