Mafra

DWLDWL ⚖

Mafra will be looking for an improved result here following a 2-1 LigaPro losing effort in their last game against Länk FC Vilaverdense.

In that match, Mafra had 63% possession and 9 shots at goal with 2 of them on target. The only player to score for Mafra was Miguel Sousa (82'). For their opponents, Länk FC Vilaverdense got 12 shots on goal with 6 on target.

It has not been often in recent times that Mafra have kept a clean sheet. In fact, Mafra have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, leaking 7 goals along the way. That kind of pattern isn’t assured to be sustained into this match, however.

Their previous form shows that Mafra:

• haven't won against Feirense in games played at home for the previous 2 league matches.
• haven't beaten Feirense in their last 5 league matches.

Feirense

LLLDLL 📉

Since tasting defeat last time out to Tondela in LigaPro competition, Feirense and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

The only player to score from Feirense was Sérgio Conceição (39'). Daniel Dos Anjos (63') and Rui Gomes (83', 90') scored for Tondela.

The stats don’t lie, and Feirense have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 11 goals in total. In defence, Feirense just haven’t been too solid at all.

📰 Team News: Mafra

There aren’t many selection issues, with just the sole fitness concern for the Mafra gaffer to contend with thanks to an otherwise robust set of players. Gui Ferreira (Broken finger) will miss out. Pedro Bravo will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

📰 Team News: Feirense

Feirense boss Filipe Filó has a number of players out of action. Isah Ali (unknown injury) and João Costa (Knee injury) are those who can’t be considered.

💡 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Feirense will likely create enough chances to put a goal past this Mafra side, although it possibly won’t quite be enough to avoid a loss.

We’re tipping a narrow 2-1 advantage for Mafra after the 90. Looking forward to this.
