Santa Clara and Famalicao meet in a matchup between two sides searching for stability after inconsistent recent runs. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, we predict a 2-2 draw. The Eagles proved their worth in a thrilling 3-3 draw with Nacional and enter this contest without fresh injury concerns, though MT and Pacheco remain sidelined. Their home form has been more reliable, averaging 1.17 points per game in the Azores and keeping 50% clean sheets at home. However, they remain inconsistent in attack, failing to score in 33% of home outings.
Famalicao, meanwhile, are coming off a narrow 1-0 defeat at Alverca but also report no new injuries, even if Aranda and Pastor remain out. They have surprisingly taken more points on the road (1.17 PPG) than at home, although defensive frailties persist, conceding 1.50 goals per game across all venues. Their away games are typically open, averaging 2.50 total goals.
The H2H numbers lean slightly toward Famalicão, who hold nine wins to Santa Clara’s eight in 18 meetings. As both sides average over 1.3 expected goals and concede regularly, we are tempted to bet on BTTS, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Famalicao Over 1.5.
This Portugal Primeira Liga match will be played on Sunday 18 January 2026 at 15:30.
