Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.
It's the second away game in a row for Nacional, but there's smiles all around after the 3-0 victory versus Vinhais in the Taça De Portugal last time out.
Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Casa Pia.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found six similar matches played by Nacional in our archives, and the results are: two wins for Nacional, three draws and one defeat.
