Santa Clara
Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-0
Casa Pia
Estadio de Sao Miguel will host Sunday’s football game between Santa Clara and Casa Pia. Santa Clara suffered a dip in form in the Primeira Liga, with the team experiencing all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-0 home loss to Sporting CP. Os Acoreanos kicked off their Taca da Liga campaign with a 1-0 loss to Porto, with the team losing to Chaves in their second group game.
This has to go down as a must-win game for the Primeira Liga side, and we predict that they are going to adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday’s clash. Casa Pia, on the other hand, are on a four-game losing run in the Segunda Liga. The visitors are low on spirits ahead of the trip to Ponta Delgada, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Santa Clara’s party at Estadio de Sao Miguel.
