CD Mafra shows significantly better form in their last five matches, averaging 2.2 points per game compared to Amarante's 1.6. The visitors have an impressive overall season record with 10 wins and only 2 losses, while the hosts have suffered 6 defeats. Although Amarante has a home advantage with a 44% win rate in home matches, CD Mafra rarely loses away (22% losses) and draws more frequently (44% draws). The xG statistics are balanced, but Mafra scores more goals on average per match (1.44 vs 1.33) and has a better unbeaten run in their last five games. Considering the visitors' higher efficiency and consistency, I predict their victory, although a draw is also a realistic scenario due to Mafra's tendency to share points away from home.
