Feirense form and stats

When playing at home in the Segunda Liga, Feirense have managed 4 wins, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 8 games.

Feirense lost their last game at UD Oliveirense (placed 16th) after a 0-1 scoreline. Preceding that match was a defeat to Vizela (1-2).

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Feirense matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, one draw and two defeats (from six games).

The Feirense fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 8 matches. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Feirense's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 10 times.

Porto II form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Porto II, who have the most conceded goals (28) in Segunda Liga, so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-3 (win-draw-lose). Porto has drawn their two previous away games.

Home advantage was not enough for Porto in their previous game, as they lost their Segunda Liga-match, hosting Leixões, 1-2. A 1-1 draw at Cova Piedade's stadium before that.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Porto when being an outsider away as they are today, we find four matches with the visitors losing four times, drawing zero and winning zero games.

Porto have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 7 league away games 8 goals have been scored. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Porto have conceded 13 goals on the road.
