Santa Clara, Recent FormWith Casa Pia sitting a clear 14 places above them in the table, Santa Clara won't feel totally dejected with their 2-1 away defeat by them last time out. They came away from that fixture with 48% of the possession and clocked up 6 attempts on goal with 3 on target. By comparison, Casa Pia managed 19 attempts on goal, with 8 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Jorge Simão will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 4 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 11 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. Simão will be concerned about his leaky defence after they have failed to keep a clean sheet at home for 8 games in a row.
With 4 defeats and just 1 victory in their last 6 league matches, they have had a poor run and will need to turn that around if they want to start climbing the table.
Boavista, Recent FormBoavista will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 4-2 home win against Portimonense. In that game they had 45% possession and managed 18 attempts on goal, with 10 on target, compared to Portimonense who had 7 attempts and 3 on target.
Manager Armando 'Petit' Teixeira will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 9 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a dismal run of form on their travels recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 away games, a solitary win providing little consolation.
Yusupha Njie will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Boavista.
Boavista recorded a 2-1 win last time these two sides went head to head in the league.
As Panteras will be confident of finding the net in this one against Santa Clara, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 15 encounters between the two sides. Goals come easy for Boavista when they travel to Os Açoreanos, having recorded 6 goals in their past 3 visits and an impressive average of 2 goals per match.
There is only really one injury concern for the Santa Clara manager Jorge Simão ahead of this clash, with Marco Pereira (Muscle) missing out, which gives Simão a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Boavista manager Armando 'Petit' Teixeira ahead of this clash, with Filipe Ferreira (Concussion) missing out, which gives 'Petit' Teixeira a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
