Prediction: 1-0
Casa Pia
After failing to spoil Benfica’s party at Estadio da Luz, Nacional will look to give fans some cheer when they welcome Casa Pia to their Estadio da Madeira on Sunday afternoon. Martin Lasarte’s troops defeated Famalicao 2-1 in their last home game, which is surely fuelling fans with optimism ahead of Casa Pia’s visit, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. Brazilian defender Ze Vitor misses out through suspension, with Leo Santos likely to step up.
The visitors, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Guimaraes and Sporting CP, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the home side. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Madeira, Spanish forward Max Svensson should be recalled to the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Nacional):
Nacional is a Portuguese football club based in Funchal, on the island of Madeira. Nacional compete in Primeira Liga, with the team hosting their rivals at Estadio de Madeira. The stadium was opened in the winter of 1998, and it can hold no more than 5,132 spectators.
