Betting on Santa Clara
The last-placed team is currently seven points behind Marítimo, which is fighting to avoid relegation. With only six games left to play, it seems unlikely that Santa Clara will be able to save itself, although mathematically it’s still possible. The only problem is that the team’s lost nine games in a row, and hasn’t earned any points since its match in February, during matchday 19. However, it is trying its best to avoid dropping to the Portuguese Second Division.
The new coach, José São Pedro Accioly, was brought in to save the team, but it has yet to win a game under his leadership. In the last match against Porto, Santa Clara put up some resistance, but ultimately lost 2-1. Can this team turn its fortunes around?
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Gabriel Batista; Pierre Sagna, Ygor Nogueira, Kennedy Boateng, Matheus Araujo; Bruno Jordao, Adriano Firmino; Ricardinho, Costinha, Allano; Matheus Babi.
Betting on Chaves
Chaves is nine points behind Arouca, the team that is currently qualifying for the Conference League. With 18 points left to play, the team would have to reach Manchester City’s level of the league to achieve its objective, which seems quite complicated, especially considering the remaining schedule.
Despite this, Chaves has only suffered one defeat in the last five matches, and in the previous matchday, the team caused the surprise of the season by defeating Benfica 1-0, the league leaders and the best team in the tournament. Although the team struggled, it defended spectacularly. Chaves is now motivated to see if it can achieve the feat of qualifying for a continental tournament, and as long as there are still points in the standings, dreams can come true.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Paulo Vitor; Nelson Monte, Carlos Ponck, Steven Vitoria, Bruno Langa; Guima, Joao Texeira; Joao Correia, Joao Mendes, Bernardo Sousa; Juninho Vieria.
JefeBet Prediction
At home, Santa Clara has only won two matches and, considering its current streak, we think this team will reach its tenth consecutive loss. On the other hand, Chaves is on cloud nine after beating Benfica, and that’s why at JefeBet we believe it will take all three points in the upcoming Santa Clara vs Chaves thrilling encounter.
Prediction: Chaves Moneyline (SAN 0-1 CHA).
