Our prediction for this Portugal League Cup match:
Leixoes and Santa Clara go head to head at Estadio do Mar in the Portugal League Cup round 2. Leixoes kicked off their Taca da Liga campaign with a 2-1 win over Oliveirense, but the bookies see them as the underdogs in Wednesday’s clash. Brazil forward Eduardo Ze, who scored the winner at the weekend, is pushing for a start, while there are no fresh injury concerns in the home side.
The Primeira Liga team, on the other hand, aim to impress on their Taca da Liga debut, but beating Leixoes on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. All Costinha, Domingos, Henrique, and Jordao are out of contention through injuries for the away side. When the two teams met in the Taca de Portugal Santa Clara outplayed Leixoes 4-1.
