Nacional host Santa Clara at Estadio da Madeira, Funchal on Sunday, Jan 17 at 6:00 PM in the Primeira Liga.
Nacional come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 1D 1L). Santa Clara, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 0L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Nacional head into this on the back of a defeat, while Santa Clara arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
In 10 previous meetings, Nacional lead 2–4 with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 2–2 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Nacional a slight edge, but Santa Clara are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
