Santa Clara Nacional betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

After two consecutive games without a win, Santa Clara will try to take advantage of the return to São Miguel to return to victories, facing a Nacional who cannot, in any way, be happy with the draw, even playing away, due to the fragile situation that it is going through in the championship. Thus, we expect a very well-played game from side to side, with high levels of competitive intensity and where spaces should appear for attacks to create several goal opportunities in general terms.

Preview
Santa Clara and Nacional face at Estádio de São Miguel, in a match for the 26th round of the Primeira Liga. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 06‑12‑2020, Santa Clara got an away win by (1‑3). The head‑to‑head history at this stadium, favours the home team, since in the last 3 head‑to‑heads they won 2 and tied 1. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Club Friendlies, on 30‑08‑2020, Santa Clara won by (2‑1). The home/away factor is worth special atention, since although this is a match between 7th and 17th of the league table, it’s also a match between the 11th best team in home matches and the 16th best in away matches.

Analysis Santa Clara

The home team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with 32 points won, after 9 wins, 5 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Tondela, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Porto, by (2‑1). Interestingly enough, this is a team that has had better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 17 points in away matches and only 15 at their stadium. For the league, Santa Clara won 11 points out of 30 possible points, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses in the last 10 home 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. 8 of their last 12 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. In 25 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 16 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Santa Clara has made a very balanced path in its struggle for maintenance, and in addition to occupying a comfortable 7th place in the league table (with 32 points, one more than Moreirense and just three from Vitória de Guimarães), the team has mostly achieved good performances. A good example of this was, precisely, that of the last matchday, despite the defeat recorded in the visit to FC Porto (2-1), where the team led by Daniel Ramos soon suffered to open the second half, but quickly reached the draw, by Carlos Júnior (56'). When the draw seemed to be the most likely result, the Azoreans broke in the final stretch and suffered the goal that dictated the defeat in a dramatic way, seconds from the final whistle (90 + 5 ’).

Confirmed Lineup: Marco Pereira, Mansur, Rafael Ramos, Mikel Villanueva, Fabio Cardoso, Lincoln, Anderson Carvalho, Hidemasa Morita, Rui Costa, Allano, Carlos.
Coach: D. Lopes Ramos.

Analysis Nacional

The away team is currently in the 17th position of the league, with 21 points won, after 5 wins, 6 draws and 14 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Gil Vicente, by (2‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Portimonense, by (1‑5). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, with 16 goals scored and 24 goals conceded at home, against 7 goals scored and 15 conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Nacional has a record of 1 win, 3 draws and 6 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 30 possible.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 7 losses in the last matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (5 out of 12 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 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. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 5 of the last 12 matches for this competition have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. In 25 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 15 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Nacional managed to keep itself balanced in this season of returning to the elite of Portuguese football, but the drop in performance has worsened over recent times and the Madeiran team has already plunged into the 18th and last place of the table, with 21 points recorded, the same as Marítimo's, one less than Nacional and three less than Boavista. The fact of having reached six consecutive defeats, led the club's management to dismiss coach Luís Freire, who was replaced by the experienced Manuel Machado. Returning to a home he knows well, the new coach of the islanders had a debut to forget, since, on the last matchday, Nacional was beaten, at home, by Portimonense, by 1-5.

Confirmed Lineup: António Filipe, Pedrão, Lucas Kal, Rui Correia, Kalindi, Mabrouk Rouai, Vladan Danilović, Vincent Thill, João Camacho, Bryan Rochez, Nuno Borges.
Coach: F. Nunes Cândido.
