Amarante vs Vitória Guimarães II: match statistics

145%(2.43)
X30%(2.94)
225%(3.00)

Amarante are in excellent form in their last five matches with four wins, having scored 7 goals and conceded 4, which translates to 2.4 points per game. The hosts are particularly strong at home, where they win 55% of matches and keep a clean sheet in 45% of games, conceding an average of just 0.91 goals. Vitória Guimarães II, despite a decent away form (50% wins), is characterized by a high draw rate away (33%) and low scoring efficiency (1.08 goals on average). The difference in xG balance (1.1 vs 1.12 for the visitors) is minimal, but Amarante's home advantage and their current form suggest a higher probability of a home win. Nevertheless, the visitors' solid defense (0.67 goals conceded away) and their tendency to draw mean that a share of the points is also a realistic scenario.
