Portimonense, Recent FormWhen Portimonense last played in the league they faced Boavista and produced an outstanding 4-1 away win. During that encounter they had 32% possession and had 11 attempts on goal with 6 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 21 shots on goal.
Manager Paulo Sérgio will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 8 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 17 of their 19 games overall.
They have lost 4 of their last 6 matches, which will be a focus of concern, but their 2 wins in that period did produce some valuable points nevertheless.
Arouca, Recent FormLast time out, Arouca recorded an impressive 5-0 home win against Vizela. They achieved 49% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 8 hitting the target, up against Vizela's tally of 7 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
Daniel Sousa will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 15 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have conceded 7 goals during those same matches. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 16 of their 19 games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
Goalscorer Rafa Mújica will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 7 goals in his last 6 league matches for Arouca.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Arouquenses will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Portimonense having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 5 meetings. In their past 5 meetings, Arouca's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Portimonense will have to take their chances when they come.
