Casa Pia - Farense predictions

Though the home team can be called favourites, they can’t quite relax going into the match at Farense. Their advantage is quite narrow, and just a few mistakes could end up costing them the game.

Farense will need to dig deep in order to get past the motivated hosts. An away win at 3.25 betting odds is considered a high risk but that’s exactly why the reward would be much sweeter.

They might not have exactly been favourites to win their last match but Casa Pia ended up suffering a Famalicão home defeat which came as quite a disappointment for their fans. Following such an embarrassment, the hosts will be eager to fight back and return to winning ways on Saturday.

The visitors’ most recent Primeira Liga result is a close away defeat at Portimonense. Such an outcome was hardly a surprise considering most betting odds expected a home win, though it’s worth mentioning that the score was still tied at the 45-minute mark.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

Farense fans have a lot of cause for concern – with 6 concessions in their latest 3 away games, their track record seems to indicate a tendency to underperform in away games.

Casa Pia played as the visitors the last time they participated in this showdown, but they managed to win anyway. As such, it’s quite clear why they’re the favourites this Saturday, even though the victory was with a one-goal difference.

Saturday's match will see both teams at full strength, able to utilize all their players.

Our prediction would be a fairly safe Home Win bet at the odds of 2.30. It’s obvious the hosts have a clear advantage going into this clash, and there’s plenty of reasons to feel confident in their success.
