Chaves vs Portimonense Prediction & Betting Tips (7 April)

Portimonense have now played 12 times since they last tasted success at the top table of the Liga Portugal, and they have suffered back-to-back defeats after returning from the winter break. The boot has been firmly on the other foot as far as high-flying Chaves are concerned, however, with a run of 17 points from seven matches leaving them in confident mood.

Over the course of their last 10 matches at the top table of the Liga Portugal, Chaves have been involved in eight encounters in which under 2.5 goals have been scored. Given that 13 of the previous 17 Portimonense away games at this elite level have followed the same pattern, anyone expecting this clash to serve up more than two goals is likely to be disappointed.

Chaves have played four matches since securing their place in the Liga Portugal, with no fewer than three of these encounters producing a clean sheet at one end of the pitch. This has also been the case in seven of the previous nine top-flight fixtures involving Portimonense, so any deviation from this script would come as a bit of a surprise.
