Famalicao vs Casa Pia Predictions

• Casa Pia have failed to score in four of their last five Primera Liga matches
• Famalicao’s last five home league matches have all finished with fewer than three goals
• Famalicao have won four of their last six home matches in all competitions

Geese lost in the search for goals

Casa Pia snapped a four-game winless streak with a nervy victory over bottom-of-the-table Pacos Ferreira but their unlikely push for Europe could suffer another setback at Famalicao.

Goals have been a major issue for Filipe Martins’s men with only four sides scoring fewer goals than the Geese’s total of 20 in the Primera Liga at the start of the weekend.

They ended a run of four games without a win or a goal in Monday’s 2-1 win over Pacos Ferreira but got a helping hand in that game with Maracas putting through his own net.

Fama can stay out of relegation drama

That own goal means Casa Pia have failed to score more than once in a league game in nine of their last ten outings; hardly the kind of form that will worry Famalicao.

The home side lost to Benfica last time out but had won their previous two matches, while a run of six wins from the last ten at home has kept them clear of the relegation zone.

Famalicao will view this as a winnable game in their efforts to keep out of trouble but are hardly a free-flowing attacking side themselves.

Their last five league games have all finished with fewer than three goals and while they are the more likely winner, any victory will be by the narrowest of margins with three of Famalicao’s six home wins this season coming via 1-0 scorelines.
