Covilha have won two recent matches in a row over Olhanense, 3-0, and Braga B, 1-0. However, these wins followed eight-match streak without a single victory. These six points allowed the team to move up on 10th place in the league with 34 points gained and 26-24 aggregate goal difference. The team shows solid results in matches on the road, taking 15 points in 12 matches, avoiding away defeats since the end of September for eight matches in a row.
The opponents have played five head-to-heads in recent years and neither of the teams have advantage and each side recorded one win and three draws. However, excellent results of the hosting side in matches at own stadium suggest that Academica should have advantage over mid-table side and win this game.
Prediction for the match: Academica to win.
