Belenenses Nacional betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 14^th position of the league, with 16 points won, after 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Moreirense, by (2‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Arouca, by (2‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 4 points in away matches and 12 points at their stadium, with 10 goals scored and 6 goals conceded at home, against 4 goals scored and 11 conceded in away matches. In the last 8 away league matches Nacional has a record of 1 win, 1 draw and 6 losses, so they have won 4 points out of 24 possible. In their away matches there are a few frequent results: at half‑time 0‑0 (4 out of 8 matches) and after the 90' 1‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 15 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 7 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 6 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Nacional da Madeira is going through a complicated period and hasn’t won any of the last 6 matches. In this match coach Manuel Machado should play in the usual 4-3-3 formation, privileging defensive organization and counterattacks: Agra and Willyan are fast players and are usually fundamental in the team’s offensive transitions. Tiquinho Soares is the best scorer of the team, with 8 goals scored. The coach has almost all players available for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Gottardi, Miguel Rodrigues, Zainadine Júnior, Nuno Sequeira, João Aurélio, Boubacar Fofana, Luís Aurélio, Washington, Salvador Agra, Witi, Gustavo.
Coach: V. Simões da Vinha.
