Nacional Estoril betting prediction

The home team plays its first match in this edition of the Taça da Liga with the intention of using the home advantage to get a positive result. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 4 draws and 10 losses in away matches; against 4 wins, 1 draw and 10 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the Primeira Liga, they got a home loss against Rio Ave by (1‑2). In the last 10 home matches Nacional has won 2 and lost 8. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 11 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 7 of their 20 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Nacional da Madeira comes to this match with a 1-0 victory, against Pevidém SC, in a preparation bout for the next official matches.

For this match, the home coach cannot count on Chico Ramos due to physical problems.
