Casa Pia - Chaves predictions

Though we can call Casa Pia the favourites in this matchup, Chaves are not about to make it easy for them. It’s gearing up to be an exciting match overall, and no outcome can be ruled out at this point.

Chaves will have little to hope for in this match. 3.88 betting odds on them winning paint a pretty clear picture and from this standpoint there is little doubt in regard to the outcome of this clash.

Casa Pia are coming on the back of a narrow 1:2 home defeat. They managed to hold back Porto in the first half – which is a success in its own right, considering the balance of power.

The away team staved off defeat in the previous round despite the largely unfavourable betting odds they had going in. Records show that they were leading at the end of the first half, which was already quite an upset. The final outcome was a 2:2 draw on home ground.

Interestingly, the hosts’ recent track record claims they’ve made over 5 goals in the latest 3 games they played as visitors. Playing at home presumably gives them an advantage, so Chaves’s defenders will need to tread lightly.

Our confidence in Chaves and, more specifically, their defenses, is shaky at best. After more than 5 concessions in three consecutive home games, most bookies and pundits see them as unreliable.

With just 23 points to their name after 31 games, the away team are in dire straits. Their chances of moving up the table seem very slim considering the 3.88 betting odds for them winning this round. They’ll need to do something soon if they want to do stay in the Primeira Liga, though.

Casa Pia already won against Chaves this season, although it was a rather narrow victory. They’ll have the home-field advantage this time, though, which puts them in the position of favourites.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
