AVS

WLLLLL 🔻

AVS won’t want a repeat of their last result here after the 4-1 Primeira Liga defeat in their last game at the hands of Braga.

In that match, AVS managed 36% possession and 4 shots on goal with 2 on target. The scorer for AVS was Rafael Rodrigues (45'). For their opponents, SC Braga got 18 shots on goal with 8 on target. Ricardo Horta (5'), Uroš Račić (26', 37') and Amine El Ouazzani (93') scored for Braga.

AVS have struggled with their forward play in recent times. Their ‘goals for’ figure stands at just 3 against opponents over the course of their previous 6 outings. In those meetings, AVS have also seen the number of goals against them come to 14.

Ahead of this meeting, AVS haven’t won at home in the past 4 matches in the league. Fans are getting restless.

Casa Pia

LLLWDL

Following on from being defeated in their last game at the hands of Porto in Primeira Liga action, Casa Pia will be hoping to turn things around here.

In that game, Casa Pia had 47% possession and 5 attempts on goal with 2 on target. Porto got 10 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target. Rodrigo Mora (5') was the scorer for Porto.

It is worth noting that Casa Pia have suffered from a shortage of goals over their last 6 games, contributing the unsatisfactory return of just 4. In those fixtures, Os Gansos (The Geese) have also seen the collective goal tally against them equal 9. Putting that to one side, we must now wait to see whether that pattern shall be sustained in this next game.

👥 Head to head

The previous league clash featuring the two was Primeira Liga match day 13 on 08/12/2024 which ended up with the score at Casa Pia 1-1 AVS.

That day, Casa Pia had 46% possession and 11 shots on goal with 5 on target. Their only player to score was João Goulart (12').

AVS had 7 shots on goal with 3 on target. Gustavo Assunção (72') was the scorer.

ℹ️ Team News: AVS

It looks as if AVS should line up in a 3-4-3 formation in the match featuring Guillermo Ochoa, Cristian Devenish, Aderllan Santos, Baptiste Roux, Fernando Fonseca, Gustavo Mendonca, Jaume Grau, Rafael Rodrigues, John Mercado, Ze Luis and Babatunde Akinsola.

🗞️ Team News: Casa Pia

Casa Pia manager João Pereira has a number of players out of action. Clau Mendes (sprain) and Kiki (unknown injury) will miss out on this game.

It’s our belief that Os Gansos (The Geese) appear most likely to play in a 3-4-3 system using Patrick Sequeira, Andre Geraldes, Joao Goulart, Ruben Kluivert, Gaizka Larrazabal, Iyad Mohamed, Pablo, Leonardo Lelo, Jeremy Livolant, Cassiano and Henrique Pereira.

💭 Prediction

Looking at these two, we feel that Casa Pia and AVS may well find themselves both scoring in what promises to be a very even battle here.

It appears that a draw might be on the cards. We’re therefore tipping a very even match with a 1-1 score when the referee blows the full-time whistle.
