📊 Form Guide
Chaves
WDLDLL
Chaves will be hoping for a better result after a 1-0 Primeira Liga losing effort in their last game against Benfica.
In that game, Chaves managed 34% possession and 7 attempts on goal with 0 on target. On the other side, Benfica had 22 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. João Neves (66') was the scorer for Benfica.
It has been seldom in recent games where Chaves have shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Chaves have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, giving up 10 goals in the process. Such a pattern won’t necessarily be sustained into this next game, however.
A look at their previous results shows us that Chaves:
- remain undefeated by Portimonense when playing them at home in the last 3 league matches.
- are without a win at home for the past 2 matches in the league.
Portimonense
DLDLLL 📉

📋 Team News: Portimonense
Owing to a completely injury-free group to pick from, the Portimonense manager Paulo Sérgio doesn’t have any fitness concerns whatsoever coming into this game.
From our viewpoint, Portimonense will likely begin the game with a 3-2-4-1 lineup, settling for Kosuke Nakamura, Filipe Relvas, Alemao, Pedro Henrique, Guga, Moustapha Seck, Taichi Fukui, Lucas Ventura, Dener Clemente, Helio Varela and Midana Cassama.
💭 Prediction
We’ve got the feeling that Portimonense will need things to go their way to put one past this Chaves side who we think might well be able to grind out a win.
We therefore see a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 winning score for Chaves at the end of this one.
There should be little in it.
