The upcoming match between Casa Pia and Nacional is set to be an interesting one, with both teams in need of three points after suffering defeats in the previous round. Casa Pia, playing at home, appears to have the upper hand, as they have a worrying average of goals conceded at home which makes them vulnerable. On the other hand, Nacional struggles to score away from home and has a concerning average of goals conceded on the road, which also puts them in a vulnerable position.
Looking at the recent head-to-head results between the two teams, it seems like this match could be a low-scoring affair, as both teams have had difficulties finding the back of the net in their encounters. Casa Pia has won one of the last two meetings between the two sides, with Nacional winning the other, and there have been no draws.
Casa Pia, coached by João Jorge Gândara Mendes Pereira, has had a tough season in front of goal, scoring an average of 0.7 goals per game. Meanwhile, Nacional, led by Tiago Carvalho Margarido, has also struggled to find the back of the net, with an average of 0.7 goals scored per game.
The difficult playing field for Nacional, combined with their goal-scoring struggles, may give Casa Pia the edge in this match. However, with both teams desperate for points, anything can happen on the day. It will be interesting to see how the match unfolds, but based on the current form and head-to-head record, Casa Pia could have the upper hand in this encounter.
