Mafra Cova Piedade betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 16^th position of the league, with 16 points won, after 4 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Vizela, by (2‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Casa Pia, by (2‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 10 points in away matches and 6 at their stadium, with 7 goals scored and 13 goals conceded at home, against 11 goals scored and 12 goals conceded in away matches. In the last 8 away league matches Cova Piedade has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 24 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑2 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 4 of the last 16 matches for the Segunda Liga, they have reached half‑time in front in all of those 4 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in all of them. In 16 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

For this away game, coach Mário Nunes should keep the team in a 3-5-2, promoting the supported game. Gonçalo Maria and João Vieira should be the offensive references of the visiting team. In turn, the middle sector should be formed by Arnold, Thabo Cele, Boss, Robson Shimabuku and Femi. For this game, the manager of the visitors has all the players able.

Confirmed Lineup: Adriano Facchini, João Meira, Simão Júnior, Gonçalo Tavares, João Patrão, Gonçalo Maria, Robson, Pepo Santos, Femi Balogun, Hugo Firmino, João Vieira.
