União Madeira Sporting CP betting prediction

The home team is currently in the 15^th position of the league, with 11 points won, after 2 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Paços de Ferreira, by (6‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Benfica, by (0‑0). In the last 7 home league matches União Madeira has a record of 2 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 9 points out of 21 possible. Their offense needs to do better, since they haven’t scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. 16 of their last 26 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 2 of the last 13 matches for the Primeira Liga, they have reached half‑time in front in all of those 2 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in all of them. In 13 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 10 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

União da Madeira comes to this match motivated by a home goalless draw against champions Benfica. However, before that they suffered two heavy losses, against FC Porto and Paços de Ferreira. William Soares is the main reference of the home team, responsible for controlling the centre of the foield and coordinate the team’s defensive and offensive moves. The best scorer of the team is Danilo Dias, with only 2 goals scored, which is clear evidence of the team’s problems to create goal opportunities and score.

Confirmed Lineup: André Moreira, Paulinho, Joãozinho, Paulo Monteiro, Diego Galo, Shehu Abdullahi, William Soares, Gian Martins, Élio Martins, Amilton, Jhonder Cadiz.
Coach: J. Félix Câmara.
