Portimonense Santa Clara betting prediction

The home team is currently in the 16^th position of the league, with 6 points won, after 1 win, 3 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Gil Vicente, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Benfica, by (4‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses at their stadium. In the last 4 home league matches Portimonense has a record of 1 draw and 3 losses, so they have won 1 point out of 12 possible.

They haven’t won any of the last 4 home matches for this competition. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 9 matches for this competition. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 2 of the last 9 matches for the Primeira Liga, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 1 of those 2 matches and have held on to the lead in 1. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 9 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 7 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Portimonense comes to this 10th round as one of the teams that has been most disillusioned in this championship start, although they have in their favor the fact that they have already faced the first four finishers of the last NOS League in this first round. With a point above the waterline, in the first position of salvation, the team in charge of António Folha has not, however, been able to demonstrate much quality on both sides of the field, especially defensively. Having added a point from last week's visit to Gil Vicente (1-1), the Algarve side failed to cope with Benfica's superior quality in Lisbon, where they lost 4-0 last Wednesday. In the first half, Portimonense even managed to create danger first, but would suffer in the sequence of set pieces, with the scenario being repeated in the first minutes of the second half. By the end, the team had no psychological capacity to react and even conceded two more goals.

Confirmed Lineup: Ricardo Ferreira, Jadson, Lucas Possignolo, Koki Anzai, Emmanuel Hackman, Bruno Tabata, Pedro Sá, Rodrigo, Lucas Fernandes, Jackson Martínez, Aylton Boa Morte.
Coach: P. Bento Brito.
