Tondela - Boavista betting tips and odds

With the 1.77 being what they are, we don’t expect anything other than a home win. Pulling off anything else would be a gargantuan task for Boavista, so we’d stay away unless you’re looking for a long shot on purpose.

Boavista are massive underdogs and will be extremely lucky to avoid complete annihilation at the hands of Tondela.

Tondela managed to put up a fight in the first 45 minutes of their previous Primeira Liga match but will have been pretty disappointed to have ended up losing the match Gil Vicente even though they were always the underdogs in this particular matchup.

Boavista didn’t have much hope of winning their previous Primeira Liga engagement – most bookies priced their victory at 2.30. Against all odds, though, they managed to end the bout with a draw thanks to an equaliser in the second half.

A quick look at recent history shows us that Tondela don’t tend to fare too well at Estádio João Cardoso despite the home-field advantage. Results aside, they’ve conceded more than 5 goals in their previous 3 home games alone.

Our confidence that Boavista will manage to hold their composure in an away game is shaky. They have over 5 concessions on record in their latest 3 visiting games alone.

These two teams have shown to be evenly matched throughout the season. They’ve recorded multiple draws since the competition began, which doesn’t sit well with Tondela because they’re the favourites. They’ll have a shot at finally getting a positive score, though.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

Though it’s a stretch, a Draw bet is likely the best option when it comes to betting on this match. With the odds at 3.90 with 888Sport, it’s not exactly the safest of bets – but it’s quite strong when it comes to value.
