Chaves desperately need points on Sunday, Jan 10 at 6:00 PM in the Liga 2. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Portimonense come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 0L). Chaves travel out of form (0W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Portimonense and Chaves have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (5W–0D–5W). Their last encounter ended in Portimonense won 3–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: The gulf in league position makes Portimonense clear favorites, but Chaves have shown they can grind out results. Expect Portimonense to take the points, potentially without being at their best.
