Notably, they have scored 8 of their 19 goals at home between the 31st and 45th minutes. With a 9-point cushion above the relegation playoff zone, Nacional now aims to finish the season strongly, potentially moving up the league table.

Their last match saw them secure a confident (3‑0) victory against Rio Ave at home, following a home defeat (0‑3) to Benfica.
