Boavista - Santa Clara predictions

Boavista are considerably weaker than their opponents in this round of the Primeira Liga, and a victory for them would be quite a surprise. We wouldn’t bet on it, though – at odds of 4.42, it’s not very likely to happen.

Most bookies see Santa Clara as the favourites in this matchup, though it’s important to know things can go either way. Their victory is currently priced at 2.00, indicating that the hosts have a fighting chance.

Although Boavista are coming on the back of a harsh 3:0 loss, it would be rather unfair to judge them purely on that performance. They were playing an away game in an extremely difficult matchup against Benfica , so they spent most of the match trailing behind.

The previous Santa Clara appearance was a long, frustrating deadlock. To be fair, the 2.21 pre-match betting odds expected something along those lines, and neither team managed to gain a conclusive lead throughout.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Boavista’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

With two matches in a row seeing not more than one or no goals, Santa Clara’s recent history marks this match as a good time for Under 1.5 Goals bets.

After 24 rounds, Boavista are fighting for their life this season in the Primeira Liga. Most online bookmakers, including online bookmakers, do not see them capable of pulling a stunt against Santa Clara despite the home advantage.

The two squads already met this season in the Primeira Liga. As expected, Santa Clara took the win, though the match was a bit close. Either way, Boavista have no history of beating the odds in this particular matchup.

With no players out due to injury or suspension, both teams will have their full lineups ready for a thrilling showdown.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.48. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
