Chaves vs Estoril Prediction (21.04.2024)

On Sunday afternoon, Chaves and Estoril clash at the Estadio Municipal Eng. Manuel Branco Teixeira in what could be a big game at the bottom of the Primeira Liga.

The home team revived their survival hopes last time out with a 1-0 win at Vizela. This win ended a six-game winless streak in the Primeira Liga and a three-match losing run.

Despite the victory, Chaves are still in 17th place in the table, five points adrift of the relegation play-off spot in the Portuguese top-flight.

Chaves will need to improve their home form if they are to escape the relegation zone. They have won just one of their last eight home games in the Primera Liga, having suffered three straight defeats on home soil in the Portuguese top-flight.

Conceding too many goals has been a main factor in their recent poor home results. They have conceded at least two goals in all three home defeats of late.

The visitors suffered a 1-0 home defeat to Sporting Braga last time out, which means that Estoril have won just two of their last nine matches in the Primeira Liga.

Their recent underwhelming form has left Vasco Seabra’s team in 13th place in the table, just two points clear of the league’s bottom three.

There hasn’t been much in their last games in the Primeira Liga games, with under 2.5 goals scored in the previous four outings.

Estoril have struggled for victories on their travels in the Portuguese top-flight, having failed to win any of their last eight games away from home.

Chaves’ recent form has been poor, but they will be boosted by that rare victory last time out. Estoril has been unpredictable in the Primeira Liga. This could be an even encounter, which is why the bet I am backing is the draw.
