The league table in Segunda Liga tells a story about these teams so far, with Feirense leading Penafiel by 14 points. Match preview to follow:
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Feirense form and stats
Feirense have played 12 Segunda Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-4-2 (wins-draws-losses). Feirense haven’t lost a league-game in eleven attempts regardless of arena, a great achievement. Their last loss was the fixture versus Farense, 89 days ago. Feirense has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Estádio Marcolino de Castro. We remember; it was Casa Pia.
The Feirense goalkeeper Caio Gobbo Secco is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 180 minutes without conceding a goal in the Segunda Liga.
It's back home for Feirense, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Mafra away with the result 1-0. Guilherme Ramos found the net in that victory. Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Academica.
Feirense has scored 13 league goals at home this season, in 12 matches. Feirense are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estádio Marcolino de Castro in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 8 from 12 matches.
Penafiel form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Penafiel so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-7 (win-draw-lose). Penafiel seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Penafiel lost away at Academica (0-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Nacional.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Penafiel as they have only managed to score 9 times from 12 away games in the league. 16 goals have been conceded by Penafiel in these games.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Penafiel - Feirense 0-0. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three Feirense victories, five draws and two Penafiel wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, seven matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
