Vitória SC form and stats

Vitória SC have collected 19 points from their Primeira Liga home games so far after 6-1-7.

Heartbreak before that as Vitória lost 0-1 at Porto's place.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Vitória SC have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won four times, drawn three and lost two.

The Vitória fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 14 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 22 goals have been conceded.

Moreirense form and stats

As the visiting team in Primeira Liga matches, Moreirense have produced an overall stat of 5-3-6 so far.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Santa Clara (placed 7th) in their previous outing. The Primeira Liga match ended in a draw 0-0. Preceding that, the 2-3 home loss versus Tondela.

We have checked recent matches where Moreirense have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 13 games were six victories, three draws and four defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Moreirense as they have only managed to score 10 times from 14 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Moreirense have seen the ball go into their own net 15 times on the road.

Head 2 Head
