Chaves form and stats
Overall Segunda Liga stats at home this season for Chaves are 3-2-4 (wins-draw-losses).
Chaves are returning here after visiting Varzim in a Segunda Liga game and winning with a 3-1 scoreline. Roberto, Jonathan Toro and Niltinho scored the goal(s). Preceding that match was the home game against Feirense that was lost 0-1.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
