130%(3.45)
X30%(3.15)
240%(1.98)

Atlético CP presents significantly better form in the last five matches with a record of three wins and just one defeat, translating to 2.0 points per match, while Sporting Covilhã earns only 0.4 points. The hosts have won a mere 13% of their home games and struggle to score – averaging only 0.63 goals per match with a 50% rate of matches without a goal scored. Atlético CP has an identical win and loss percentage away (38%), but their defense is far superior, conceding an average of only 0.75 goals per away match compared to 1.38 for the hosts. Goal difference also favors the visitors (-1 vs -6), and their recent form (wwwld) indicates growing confidence. Given Covilhã's poor efficiency in front of their home crowd and Atlético's solid form, the visitors hold the advantage, although the history of away meetings between the two teams suggests a draw is also a realistic scenario.
