In that match, Boavista had 41% possession and 10 attempts at goal with 3 on target. On the other side, Marítimo had 9 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target.
Boavista have really been misfiring in recent times. Their sum of goals stands at just 3 against opposition teams during their previous 6 fixtures. In those games, As Panteras have also seen the number of goals against them come to 8. Such a trend isn’t assured to be carried forward here, however.

- are without a win at home for the past 2 league matches.

ℹ️ Team News: Boavista
Miguel Reisinho (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) and Adil Rami (Muscle Injury) aren’t available for Boavista gaffer Jesualdo Ferreira.
🗞️ Team News: Santa Clara
Owing to an otherwise full-strength squad, there is only the sole fitness problem for the Santa Clara boss Daniel Ramos to be concerned about. Mansur (Muscle Injury) misses out for this game.
💭 Prediction
We feel that Santa Clara certainly have the ability to find the net against this Boavista side, but it probably shouldn’t be enough to avoid defeat.
We think that it’s going to be a narrow 2-1 win for Boavista at the end of the match. Let’s see what happens here.
