Santa Clara hosts FC Porto in round 23 of Portuguese Primeira Liga. The match will be played on Monday, March 2nd at Estádio de São Miguel (Ponta Delgada)
Surprisingly, Santa Clara is not bad at holding the current segment in the Portuguese championship. The team managed to score 12 points in the last five matches in Primeira, namely to gain four victories with just one defeat. Thus, they climbed to 8th place in the standings, having 29 points in their assets. Truth be told, the players of Santa Clara scored only 18 goals, having conceded 23 times. For comparison, third Braga conceded 24 goals. Now Santa Clara’s shape is the best possible. Of course, the players are significantly inferior in class to their current rivals, but with the support of the home stands, they can quite score a goal.

Under the management of Sergio Conceicao, Porto plays excellently in the national championship and continues to fight with Benfica for the champion’s title. In 22 rounds, the Dragons earned 56 points, scored 47 goals and conceded only 15. Porto won the last five games, and four of them ended with Over 2.5 goals scored and even more. All the leaders of the team are ready to play. Soares, Telles, Marega, and Ze Luis - all of them are in great shape, and someone will surely manage to score. The difference in class is too significant - Porto will probably win this game and score at least three goals.
Quotes are set quite adequately - Porto is really a pronounced favorite in this match. In the last five head-to-head matches, the Dragons celebrated victory five times. But at the same time, the teams often played without an abundance of goals scored. However, Porto created many goal attempts and scored in recent matches. Therefore, I think that we will see at least 3-4 goals scored in the upcoming match.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
