Famalicão - Moreirense betting tips and odds

Famalicão are easily the favourites in the match this Thursday, but we wouldn’t call a Home Win bet at the odds of 2.15 safe, exactly. They are more likely to win than not, but Moreirense may have a few tricks up their sleeve yet.

It would be a minor miracle for Moreirense to win at Famalicão, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 4.00 price on most online sportsbooks.

It’s hard to make reliable claims about the form of Famalicão purely based on the previous round against Nacional . While the first half was fairly solid on their end, the match ended in a narrow 2:1 away defeat.

Moreirense are coming off from a crushing defeat at the hands of Sporting Braga. The top online bookmakers priced their victory at 7.50 despite the home-field advantage. This assessment turned out to be true: Moreirense struggled to keep up from the get-go and ended up losing the match 0:4.

The hosts’ fans are somewhat disappointed at them, given the lacklustre defensive performances they’ve seen recently. Famalicão conceded more than 5 times over the previous 3 games played at Estádio Municipal 22 de Junho.

Moreirense’s recent track record shows a very concerning amount of concessions – 6 of them in their previous 3 matches, to be exact. While it’s obvious their defence has a lot of problems, Over markets might be a good option for this match.

Famalicão are placed 15th in the standings at the moment, with 1 point separating them from the relegation zone. It’s difficult to make any strong statements at the moment since we’re not even past the mid-season yet.

With just 18_TO_SAFE_ZONE points between them and the relegation zone and a clash with Famalicão ahead of them, Moreirense’s prospects this season seem grim going into round 17. Surviving in the Primeira Liga is likely their only goal moving forward.

A clash between these two teams last season ended in a stalemate. Overall, this was worse news for Famalicão, who are widely considered the stronger team.

With limited means at their disposal, both teams will have to make do with shortened rosters. We’re referring to the fact both teams suffered strings of injuries, rendering a good chunk of both squads unavailable for this match. Famalicão_INJURIES will not be playing for the hosts, while Moreirense_INJURIES will be missing on the visiting side.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 2.05, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
