SC Farense vs Tondela tips and predictions

Tondela looking to climb the mountain in Primeira Liga fixture

On 28 points SC Farense will welcome 36-point Tondela. There are 6 positions separating the two Primeira Liga clubs.

While it might seem a stretch the big price available against Tondela could be something to consider.

The hosts have looked out of sorts in some of their latest outings. SC Farense have been all over the shop in terms of value for bettors. They've lost 5 of their last 9 games as hosts. To highlight some of their problems, shots on goal have been in short supply for them. They've scored just 0.7 goals on average over their last 9 home matches which is a piece of analysis that will give supporters of the upset some confidence. In the most part they've not been punished but sometimes losing their shape has cost them. They conceded at least once in 18 of their last 19 home matches and if they have any selection issues they could get exposed.

Tondela have come up with plenty of good numbers. Notably they've scored two or more goals in 3 of their last 4 away fixtures. Their play-makers are going to have to put in a massive shift to get something from the game. While they are not hugely fancied there is still some logic in liking the chances for the visitors to come through this test.

SC Farense are the favoured side but things will get exciting if Tondela can make them sweat. It isn't easy to see a clean sheet here. The Yes BTTS bet is the hesitant side bet.

The head-to-head shows that Tondela have won all of the last 3 matches between these teams.
