Boavista, Recent FormLast time out, Boavista went away feeling content with a 3-1 away win against Paços de Ferreira Their share of possession in that meeting was 38%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Paços de Ferreira, who had 15 shots on goal with 6 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Armando 'Petit' Teixeira will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 10 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Having found the back of the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Estádio do Bessa Século XXI, they are developing an impressive scoring record at home. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Boavista will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games, but having managed just 2 wins leaves them plenty of room for improvement.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Boavista, Yusupha Njie will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Arouca, Recent FormArouca will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-0 winners in their home fixture against Casa Pia. They came away from that fixture with a 60% share of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Casa Pia, who managed 11 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 8, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 6 goals and some valuable points in the process. On their travels, they have made a habit of scoring goals, having found the net in 5 of their last 6 outings away from home. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win. Their away form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 5 draws in 10 away league games.
Oday Dabbagh will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Arouca.
It was one to forget for Arouca last time they met Boavista in the league, falling to a 1-2 defeat.
During the last 3 times these two teams have met in the league at Estádio do Bessa Século XXI, Arouquenses have been unable to break through the Boavista defence and find the back of the net. Boavista will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Arouquenses, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 5 meetings between the two.
Boavista has won the last 2 games they've played against Arouca in the league.
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.
There is only really one injury concern for the Arouca manager Armando Evangelista ahead of this clash, with Victor Vitinho (Unknown) missing out, which gives Evangelista a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
