UD Oliveirense, who have the the worst goal difference (-16) in Segunda Liga, have only collected 12 points from their away games in the Segunda Liga, after 3-3-7 (13 played). Bitter travels for Oliveirense as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Porto II match.

Oliveirense are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the Segunda Liga against Leixoes (placed 12th). A 0-3 defeat away at Estoril before that.

Miguel Lima came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Leixoes last time out, making the manager R. Cerqueira Oliveira feel like a tactical genius.

The attacking power of UD Oliveirense when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 13 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, Oliveirense have conceded 21 goals in their away games.
