Famalicao vs. Gil Vicente Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Famalicao and Gil Vicente, taking place on Sunday, 15 September 2024, at Estádio Municipal 22 de Junho in Vila Nova de Famalicão.
Famalicao, Recent Form
The 2-1 away defeat to Vitoria SC will not have sat easily with the Famalicao squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They came away from that fixture with 65% of the possession and clocked up 1 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, Vitoria SC managed 1 attempts on goal, with 1 on target.
Manager Armando Evangelista will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 matches overall.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
Marcos Sorriso will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Famalicao.
Gil Vicente, Recent Form
It's fair to say Gil Vicente will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with SC Braga, a match that ended in a 0-0 draw. They achieved 28% possession in that match and had 0 strikes at goal, with 0 hitting the target, up against SC Braga's tally of 5 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
Manager Bruno Pinheiro will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 6 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
Kanya Fujimoto 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 Gil Vicente.
