Pacos Ferreira vs Belenenses Prediction & Match Preview

Pacos Ferreira vs Belenenses
Portugal – Primeira Liga
Date: Wednesday, 17 June 2020
Kick-Off at 19:00 UK/ 20:00 CET
Venue: Estádio da Capital do Móvel (Paços de Ferreira).

The hosts are just 5 points above the relegation zone. They have lost more than half of their 26 games until now. During this season they have lost 15 games while winning only 7 in return. The latest league fixture saw them lose to Sporting who are fourth in the table.

The away side is currently on an unbeaten run which extends to the last 6 matchdays. With half of those being wins, they have moved to 13th spot in the table. But they still need to keep adding on the points to reach where they finished last season. With a newbie like the hosts, they will have the added advantage of experience.

Pacos Ferreira vs Belenenses: Head-to-head (h2h)

• Ferreira has two wins and a defeat in 5 of their previous meetings.
• Both sides have found the back of the net in three of those matches.
• Four of those five games had less than 2.5 goals in total.
• Ferreira is unbeaten in the last 7 head to head games at this ground.
• Fewer than 2.5 goals were scored in 6 of those 7 games here.
• The last time Belenenses won at this ground was back in March 2008.

Pacos Ferreira vs Belenenses: Prediction

The home team had an inconsistent last few weeks in the league. After they won the game against teams like Famalicao, Rio Ave, and then went to lose to Sporting and Guimaraes. On the other hand, the visitors are on an unbeaten run. Belenenses have won some very difficult games against mid-table teams. So even though they have a poor head to head record at this ground they have the upper hand in this upcoming tie.

It is true that both of them have weak defenses but at the same time, both attacking units are not in form. The hosts have scored 22 goals so far while the visitors have scored one less in the 26 rounds.  In the current form, the chance for both teams scoring is very narrow. So I am backing a double chance for a draw or the visitors winning with only one team scoring.

Ferreira vs Belenenses: Betting Tips

• Double Chance @ 1.67 (2/3).
• Both teams to score: No @ 1.90 (9/10)
