Sporting Covilhã form and stats

1-2-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Sporting Covilhã in their Segunda Liga matches away. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Covilhã are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

This match can not go any worse than the last one, a League Cup home defeat versus Nacional with 1-2 on the scoreboard.

A loss, in the League Cup away at Portimonense, before that. As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Sporting Covilhã playing away, we found 9 games. Results were 1 away win, 2 draws and 6 home wins.

Observe that 8 of this team's 10 latest league games have ended with at least three goals.
