Moreirense vs Famalicao Predictions

• Famalicao are unbeaten in their last five league games.
• Both teams have scored in 69% of Moreirense’s home games.
• Both teams have scored in 62% of Famalicao’s away games.
• Over 2.5 goals have been scored in 69% of Famalicao’s away games.

The visitors sit 10pts and five places above Moreirense

Moreirense claimed a point away at Vitoria Guimaraes last time out courtesy of a 1-1 draw and sit 10th in the table. Famalicao were held to a goalless draw at home by fellow European hopefuls Braga on Friday and remain 3pts behind the 4th-placed club.

Both Moreirense and Famalicao have won three, drawn two and won one of their last six league games but the visitors are unbeaten in their last five matches and have performed better than Moreirense since the pair returned to action in June. When these two sides last met they played out a six-goal thriller in which the hosts Famalicao raced into a 3-0 lead and ended up having to settle for a point, as Moreirense scored three times in the last 24-minutes.

Neither of these two sides have a good record of clean sheets this season

Our prediction for both teams to score on Wednesday night carries plenty of weight as these two clubs have struggled to keep clean sheets this season. Both teams have scored in 69% of Moreirense’s home games and 62% of Famalicao’s away trips this season, as well as in three of the duo’s last five matches against one another.

The hosts have only kept clean sheets in 23% of their home games this season while the same can be said about Moreirense on the road. However, Famalicao have scored in 77% of their away games this season and Moreirense have only failed to score once at home, so you can see why we’re backing goals in this game for both teams.

The hosts have only failed to score in one of their 13 home games

As for a final scoreline, we’re predicting a 2-1 win for Famalicao as they have the momentum in their favour and look much more like that team that surprised us all in the first half of the season since returning to action this month. The visitors have scored two or more goals in three of their last five matches and have won each of those games. 69% of the visitors’ away games this season have produced over 2.5 goals as have 54% of the hosts’ home matches, all of which ties in nicely with our final scoreline prediction.
