Vitoria Setubal and Santa Clara set for a close encounter

Two teams who look set for a comfortable finish to the Portuguese Primeira Liga season are Vitoria Setubal and Santa Clara, who met on Wednesday evening.
Vitoria Setubal are currently 12th place in the Primeira Liga table, ten points clear of the relegation zone. A winless run of seven games in the Portuguese top-flight ended any chance of the home side making a challenge for the European spots this season.
A 1-1 draw at Maritimo last time out in the Portuguese top-flight means that Setubal’s last three league matches have ended in draws. Although their recent league matches haven’t all been high-scoring, both teams have scored in five of their last six games in the Primeira Liga.
Julio Velazquez’s team have failed to win in their last four home games in the Portuguese top-flight. A 1-1 draw with reigning champions Benfica in their last home game ended a three-game losing run on home soil in the top-flight. The fact that they have faced three of the leagues top four in their last four matches on home soil has made it difficult to pick up home wins of late.
Santa Clara are eighth place in the Primeira Liga, four points ahead of Wednesday’s opponents and ten points adrift of the European spots.
A recent inconsistent run of league form has ended any chance of landing a top-four spot. A 3-2 home win over Sporting Braga last time out ended a three-game winless run in the top-flight for the visitors.
Joao Henriques team has an inconsistent recent away record in the Portuguese top-flight. However, a record of just three wins from their last 11 matches on their travels is a poor one.
Their recent league matches on their travels have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches.
Forebet predicts that this game will produce an uneventful goalless draw, which may have very little meaning on where either side finishes this season in the top-flight.
