Seven matches in the Portuguese Primeira Liga campaign, Maritimo and Moreirense and tied at six points and only separated by goal difference. Maritimo plays host to Moreirense, with the two sides having had mixed results in their last outings. Maritimo are coming to this game from a 1-0 loss to Sporting Lisbon, which was their fifth straight outing without a win. They haven’t scored in their last two matches, extending their goalless outings to four in the eight matches this season. Generally, Maritimo have been poor in attack, scoring more than a goal in only two of the eight matches this season. They aren’t also the strongest defensively, with only one clean sheet in eight matches, and in their last 10 league matches at home, Maritimo have three wins, with none of the wins coming in the last five matches. They have lost five of the 10 home league matches and going to this game they have three straight losses against Moreirense.

Moreirense finally managed their first win, a 2-1 win over Arouca, but they still have kept a clean sheet, though they were very close in this game. They conceded with eight minutes to go in that game, and will be glad at bagging the points, recovering from a 5-0 loss to Porto earlier. The visitors have only failed to score in one of their eight matches this season – the loss to Porto. They’ve scored two goals or more in four of the last six matches and six of their last seven games have seen over 2.5 goals scored. In league action, Moreirense have scored two or more goals in six of the last 10 matches. They will have the favorites’ feel here, having beaten Maritimo in four of their last six meetings.
