Porto II form and stats

Porto II have secured 5 points from their first three home games in the Segunda Liga. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.

Porto are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 2-4 away versus Chaves. Did Porto get overconfident in their match against Chaves? We'll let you decide, but they did lose a 2-0 lead to end up with a 2-4 defeat. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Before that game, the 3-1 home victory against Mafra.

Goals decide football matches and Porto are scoring many of them at home; 6 on target from 3 league matches. Porto II's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 4 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Rio Ave form and stats

Rio Ave are happy with their away performances in the Segunda Liga so far, having secured two victories and one draw from their first three travels. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Rio Ave, as they have won on their previous two travels.

It's the second away game in a row for Rio, but there's smiles all around after the 3-1 victory versus Vitoria de Sernache in the Taça De Portugal last time out.

A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting Santa Clara in the League Cup.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Rio alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (9 from 3 played). As opposed to that, Rio have seen the ball go into their own net 3 times on the road.
