Santa Clara return to home soil to face Tondela at 5:30 PM today in what could be a turning point in their Primeira Liga campaign.

Santa Clara have shown glimpses of consistency, picking up 2 wins recently. Tondela will be hoping to turn things around after a tough stretch.

Historically, both teams are level with 3 wins each in 10 past encounters. 4 of those have ended in draws. Their most recent meeting saw Santa Clara edged it 1-0.

Expect Santa Clara to control midfield with their 3-4-3 formation, while Tondela aim to absorb and counter in their 4-2-3-1.

Expect a tight, tactical affair. Santa Clara may hold the edge at Estadio do Sao Miguel, but Tondela's quality on the break shouldn't be underestimated.
