Marítimo, Recent FormMarítimo won't feel too deflated by the 2-0 away defeat to Casa Pia, given that their opponents sit a full 14 places above them in the league table. During that encounter they had 60% possession and had 17 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 5 of their 16 shots on goal.
Whilst they have scored a reasonable 5 goals in their last 6 games, they are struggling to pick up points due to their defence, who have shipped 12 goals in the same period. The art of scoring goals has eluded them, having failed to find the back of the net for the past 3 games in a row. As defensive records go, they don't have one to celebrate, with at least 1 goal shipped in 21 of their 25 league matches this season.
Their recent results are not something they'll be looking to repeat, having lost 5 of their last 6 games. It has been a particularly poor run of form in the league, having racked up 17 defeats in 25 games.
Boavista, Recent FormThe 2-1 home defeat to Famalicão will not have sat easily with the Boavista squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 57% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Famalicão who had 7 attempts and 3 on target.
Armando 'Petit' Teixeira will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 5 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 9 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. On the road, they are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away games. They don't have an enviable away record at the moment, having conceded at least one goal in 11 of their last 12 league matches way from home, making valuable points hard to acquire on the road.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Yusupha Njie will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Marítimo in this match, having already scored 3 goals in his last 6 away games for Boavista.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
Marítimo have managed to keep a clean sheet against As Panteras in each of their previous 3 meetings at Estádio do Marítimo. In each of the previous 4 matches against Marítimo, As Panteras have let in at least one goal. Boavista have struggled to break down the Os Verde-Rubros defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
Marítimo have built up an impressive record in the league against Boavista, going unbeaten in their last 7 meetings.
With only Marcelo Carné (Knee) and Geny Catamo (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, José Gomes will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Boavista manager Armando 'Petit' Teixeira has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
