The Portuguese Segunda Liga representative - U. Madeira stay now in much worse situation within the League Cup: the club is confidently sitting on the last place in Group B with only one single point gained after 1:1 home draw against Belenenses and thrashing 0:6 loss at Sporting’s field. At the moment the team demonstrates an extremely poor shape and is not likely to claim for a promotion from the group.
The upcoming rivals have never played draws in their head-to-heads: Maritimo have celebrated three victories (3:1, 2:0, 3:2) while U. Madeira earned two wins with 1:0 and 2:1 scorelines. Both opponents need a triumph badly in order to prolong their battle within the League Cup. Nevertheless, the possible success will not guarantee any of them a place in the semi-finals of the tournament. Still, Maritimo have better chances for a victory in the forthcoming fight as they will perform at the home pitch.
Prediction for the match: Maritimo to win.
