Boavista vs Nacional Predictions

Boavista and Nacional do battle over three precious points in the Primeira Liga this weekend, where a victory for the hosts could move them into mid table, while a win for Nacional would take them out of the bottom three. Neither team heads into the game in good form, but with the home advantage Boavista are the favourites with the bookmakers to claim all three points.

Boavista offered very little in terms of attacking threat when they made the short trip to the Estádio Do Dragão to face Porto last time out. Porto scored late in the first half and early in the second to claim, what was, a comfortable 2-0 victory over Boavista. Nacional had the majority of the overall possession and created more goal scoring opportunities than their guests, but late in the second half both teams have men sent-off and the game ended goalless.

We’re expecting a tight and tense ninety minutes between these two teams with the threat of relegation still looming over both clubs this season, and their recent head to head record and performances in the Primeira Liga of late, all points towards a win for Boavista and under 2.5 goals being scored on Sunday. Five of the last seven meetings between these two clubs have produced under 2.5 goals, and Boavista have kept four clean sheets in their last seven matches against Nacional. The hosts have won four of their last five matches at home, while the visitors have lost four of their last six matches. Four of Boavista’s and three of Nacional’s last six matches have produced also seen under 2.5 goals scored, which just adds to our prediction of a tight and tense game on Sunday.

Mateus top scores for the hosts with four goals in the Primeira Liga, while Rochez has scored ten times in the league for Nacional. We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be scored on Sunday, and have predicted a final score of 2-0 in favour of the hosts Boavista. Boavista have been strongest at home this season thanks to their excellent defensive record, and we expect that record to lead the hosts to victory against a Nacional side that had the worst defensive record in the Primeira Liga.
