Moreirense - Farense predictions

With bookies pricing a home win at 1.95, it’s clear the match may yet go either way. The hosts have a distinct advantage, of course, but both a draw and an away win are quite possible outcomes.

Farense will have little to hope for in this match. 4.55 betting odds on them winning paint a pretty clear picture and from this standpoint there is little doubt in regard to the outcome of this clash.

A halftime/fulltime draw from the previous round came as a surprise for the Moreirense fans. Their team struggled to break in front during both halves and there is little doubt they will try to make amends for this unpleasant surprise on Sunday. A draw at halftime became a draw at fulltime in Moreirense’s last Primeira Liga fixture. With not much to brag about from the previous game, the hosts now want to make up for the lost two points.

Farense took home a single point after their previous away game. However, if we take into account the overwhelming odds they were up against in that matchup against Santa Clara, the final 0:0 draw seems like a fairly solid performance.

The biggest issue the hosts have is a lacklustre backline. They’re currently on a bit of a trend of conceding a lot of goals – over 5 across their 3 previous matches, to be exact.

Farense will need to make a hard turn to avoid disaster this season, and they’ll need to do it soon. Though there’s a good chunk of the season still ahead of them, the upcoming matchups are not exactly favourable.

Moreirense already have a victory over Farense on their record. It happened earlier in this running season of the Primeira Liga, marking them as the clear favourites for the upcoming showdown.

Sunday's matchup will feature both teams at full strength, allowing for a fair and competitive game.

If you’re hunting for betting value, a Draw bet is by far your best option. Success is definitely not guaranteed, but the 3.26 odds provide a decent enough return to make the risk worth it.
