After the first game it's Vizela - Tondela 0-3 in points. Who will triumph in this second Primeira Liga game of the season?

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!

Vizela form and stats

Last season, Vizela's league statistics were 18 wins, 12 draws and 4 losses, resulting in a 2nd position in the Segunda Liga. Over these 34 matches they scored 59 goals and conceded 35. Playing at home last season Vizela managed 11-5-1 (win-draw-lost) with 29 goals and 15 conceded. The Vizela fans aren't used to losing league-games here at Estádio da Capital do Móvel and will expect new points from this game. Vizela has played 13 games in a row here without a defeat.

In their previous game, the manager Á. Teixeira Pacheco led his Vizela to a defeat in the Primeira Liga match away at Sporting CP. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estádio da Capital do Móvel. Francis Cann (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.02/10. Cann hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Estrela Amadora (1-2).

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

Tondela form and stats

Let's have a look at how Tondela performed last season in the Primeira Liga: They landed a 12th position in the league table after playing out 10 victories, 6 draws and 18 defeats. In total they scored 36 and conceded 57 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 4 and lost 11 with 18/36 goals scored/conceded.

Tondela won their last game, 3-0 versus Santa Clara played at home. The attacker Daniel dos Anjos got a match rating of 8.41 in that game. Anjos scored two goals and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times.

The game before that, in the League Cup, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Gil Vicente.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Tondela playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were two Tondela wins, two draws and eight defeats.
