2592
On Friday night, Portimonense host Moreirense in the Primeira Liga, as both teams look to get back to winning ways in the Portuguese top-flight.
The home side are currently tenth in the Primeira Liga table, seven points clear of the relegation zone. Despite their comfortable position in the table, Portimonense have won just once in their last eight league matches, suffering five defeats in the process. Last time out the home side drew 2-2 with Belenenses.
Although the home sides last three league games have produced over 2.5 goals, six of their last nine Primeira Liga games have seen under 2.5 goals scored.
Portimonense’s recent home record in the Portuguese top-flight is poor, as they have won just once in five home league outings. However, a 5-1 win over Nacional in their last home game ended a four-match winless streak on home soil in the Primeira Liga.
Their recent home games in the Portuguese top-flight have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches.
Moreirense FC are enjoying a very steady campaign in the Primeira Liga and are currently sixth in the Portuguese top-flight table. A win in Portimao would move them up to fifth place in the table.
The visitor's recent form has dipped slightly of late in the league, as they have failed to win in three matches while losing their last two games against Maritimo and Benfica. Their recent league encounters have been relatively high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four games.
Moreirense’s recent away form in the Primeira Liga has been inconsistent, as they have won two and lost three of their last five league games on their travels.
Forebet predicts that Moreirense will get back to winning ways in the Portuguese top-flight by recording a victory in a high scoring encounter.
