The visiting Académica side should be favourites in this visit to UD Oliveirense, as the away team holds a 23 point advantage from their 24 league games this season.
UD Oliveirense and Académica should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
UD Oliveirense form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Segunda Liga this season. UD Oliveirense have only managed 2 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Estádio Carlos Osório. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Oliveirense with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Vilafranquense game, 25 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
UD Oliveirense are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 361 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by F. Goncalves).
Ahead of that match, Oliveirense lost 0-1 at home to Chaves.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Oliveirense here at Estádio Carlos Osório in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (10 from 12 games). Oliveirense's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 16 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Académica form and stats
As the visiting team in Segunda Liga matches, Académica have produced an overall stat of 6-4-2 so far.
Académica might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Vizela proved too strong as Académica slumped to a 1-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Estádio EFAPEL. Preceding that game was the away victory against Penafiel with the score of 2-1.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Académica have scored 15 goals in 12 league games away. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far).
