Two teams looking to avoid relegation from the Portuguese Primeira Liga, Famalicao and Belenenses meet on Friday night, with vital points at stake.
The home side currently occupy the second automatic relegation spot in the Portuguese top-flight. Their recent league form has been poor, as they have suffered four straight defeats, with the last of them coming in a 2-0 defeat at Benfica.
The defeat against the Eagles illustrated their struggles at both ends of the field. Famalicao have scored just once in those four recent defeats while conceding at least two goals in three of the losses.
The recent defensive record may not be massively surprising, as the home side has the worst defensive record in the Primeira Liga.
Famalicao’s home form needs to improve, as they have failed to win in their last five league matches on home soil, including suffering four straight defeats on home soil. They have struggled for home goals in the top-flight, scoring just once in their last four league outings.
Belenenses’ recent form has led to relegation worries, as the visitors are on a run of just one win in their last nine Primeira Liga. Last time out, they drew 1-1 with Vitoria Guimaraes.
The visitors recent league games have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in their last seven matches.
Belenenses away form has not been great of late in the Primeira Liga, as the visitors have claimed just one win from their previous 12 league matches on their travels in Portuguese top-flight.
One of the main factors in their poor away form is that Belenenses have failed to score in their previous seven away games.
Forebet predicts that this clash will finish in a tight, low-scoring draw, which will be a better result for the visitors than the home team.
