Santa Clara, Recent FormSanta Clara will not be too disheartened with their 2-1 away defeat at the hands of Porto who sit so many places above them in the table. During that encounter they had 33% possession and had 8 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 12 shots on goal.
Manager Danildo Accioly will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 2 goals, conceded 12, and picked up a meagre 0 points. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. Accioly has a real defensive headache with his squad's inability to keep a clean sheet at home, having conceded a goal in each of their the past 13 games.
Serious concerns will be mounting for Os Açoreanos, having gone without a win in their last 15 league games and lost the last 9 in a row.
Chaves, Recent FormChaves will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their home fixture against Benfica. Their share of possession in that meeting was 32%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target. Benfica had 18 shots on goal with 4 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 5, and leading to valuable points being dropped. When it comes to attacking performances, they can consider themselves in a good and consistent form, having chalked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches. They are proving to be a hard team to beat, having kept 4 clean sheets in their last 6 matches.
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.
Héctor Hernández will be hoping to create problems for Santa Clara in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Chaves.
The previous meeting between these two sides was not one to live long in the memory; that match finished without a goal, and both teams settling for a point apiece.
In their last 3 league meetings with Santa Clara, Flavienses have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal.
This match has run out a draw on the previous 2 encounters between these sides in the league; however, Santa Clara may have a slight edge with them currently enjoying a 3 match unbeaten streak against their opponents.
With no real injury worries, Santa Clara manager Danildo Accioly will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
With only Jonny Arriba (Muscle) and Nwankwo Obiora (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Vítor Campelos will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
