Prediction: 1-0
Tondela
Buoyed by a 2-1 win over Alverca, Santa Clara will look to keep on climbing the standings when they face Tondela in the Primeira Liga round 7. Vasco Matos’ men have been raising their form ever since they suffered elimination in the Conference League playoffs and they are surely capable of beating Tondela in front of home fans. To make things even better for the home side, midfielder Paulo Victor is back from suspension.
Os Auriverdes, on the other hand, made a slow start to the season. As Tondela have yet to record a win in the new Primeira Liga campaign, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s encounter. Helder Tavares is banned for the visiting team following his sending-off in a goalless draw with Estrela. There are no fresh injury worries in the away side ahead of the trip to Azores.
