Cova-da-Piedade are in sever crisis as the visiting side are unable to win in their recent 10 matches in a row with only three points gained in these matches. The team fell to 13th position in the standings of Portuguese Segunda Liga with 34 points after 26 matches played. The visiting side played 12 matches on the road and gained only 11 points in these matches with 11 goals scored and 21 conceded. The team recorded defeats in their recent four away matches since the middle of November with 2-10 on aggregate.
Santa Clara and Cova-da-Piedade played only one head-to-head before, drawing in reverse match 1-1. Considering poor results of the visiting side this season and especially in away matches, we can expect the hosts to prevail in the match and battle for three points.
Prediction for the match: Santa Clara to win.
