Match description
I back an away win — CD Nacional holds a clear advantage in efficiency and form. This season Nacional has scored 32 goals versus Tondela’s 21, and in the last 5 matches the visitors have scored 3 goals and averaged 1.2 points per game compared to 2 goals and 0.4 points for the hosts. Nacional’s defense looks much better in the short term: the visitors conceded 4 goals in the last 5 matches, while Tondela conceded as many as 10, despite season-long averages of 1.27 goals conceded per home match for Tondela and 1.33 away for Nacional. Quality of chances favors Nacional — on average 4.33 shots on target per away match for the visitors versus 3.47 in Tondela’s home matches, visitors’ xG is 1.35 vs 1.23 for the hosts, and Tondela fail to score in 60% of home games versus 33% for Nacional. Considering these figures and Tondela’s high home draw rate (47%), I estimate the probabilities as: Nacional win 60%, draw 25%, Tondela win 15%.
