Portimonense - Marítimo betting tips and odds

Betting odds can be illusive at times and Marítimo are more than capable of pulling an upset. However, Portimonense should have a clear path to victory if they stick to the plan.

An away win in this match would be a huge surprise and an equally big achievement for Marítimo who could consider themselves fortunate if they run away with a point in the bag.

Although Portimonense are coming on the back of a harsh 2:0 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 Sporting CP , so they spent most of the match trailing behind.

Although the previous round didn’t end well for Marítimo, it can’t really be called a disappointment. It was a narrow 1:2 loss against vastly stronger opposition - Porto. Considering the 11.00 odds Marítimo had to win, most spectators expected complete domination.

Portimonense are a force to be reckoned with when met on their home turf, which is the case here. They currently have a trend going on with more than 5 goals scored over the last 3 home games, and they’ll certainly be looking to continue it.

Marítimo’s defence seems to be their most prominent weakness at the moment. Having allowed 6 goals in their previous 3 games, it might be a good time to look at Over 3.5 Goals betting markets when it comes to their next match.

Portimonense are placed 13th 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.

Marítimo 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.

Looking over the head-to-head statistics for this Primeira Liga season, the hosts already recorded a victory over Marítimo. This puts them ahead of their opponents, which is reflected in the betting odds.

There’s an interesting development over at Estádio Municipal de Portimão. It seems both teams have been struck hard by injuries. On one hand, Portimonense_INJURIES will not be playing for the hosts. Conversely, Marítimo_INJURIES will all be unavailable on the away side. Both teams will have to deal with limited options.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 2.45 if you use the bwin sportsbook.
