Match preview: Santa Clara vs Nacional

Santa Clara and Nacional compete at the Estádio de São Miguel, in a match of the 27th round of the Primeira Liga. In their last encounter in this competition on 04-Nov-2024, Nacional secured a home victory with a score of 2-0. Historically, the head-to-head record at this stadium favours the home side, with 2 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss in their last 4 meetings. However, it’s worth noting that the last time they faced each other at this location was on 17-Mar-2024, where Nacional managed to win 1-0, with the lone goal netted by Carlos Daniel in the 13th minute. The home advantage could play a significant role, especially as Nacional has demonstrated marked differences in their performance when at home compared to playing away.

Team analysis: Santa Clara

After 13 wins, 4 draws, and 9 losses, the home side is currently placed 5th, having accrued 43 points. In their latest match, they triumphed over Gil Vicente with a solitary goal (0-1), following a previous home draw against Moreirense (1-1). Santa Clara continues to perform well away from home, recording 6 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses over their last 30 matches; contrasting with their home record of 9 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses. In their last 10 home games in the league, Santa Clara has achieved 5 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, gathering 17 points from a possible 30. The most common half-time score at home has been 0-0 (6 times in 13 matches). Their defensive solidity has been questioned, having conceded goals in 7 of their last 10 fixtures in the league. Furthermore, trends indicate a tendency for low-scoring matches at home, with 9 out of the last 13 games having fewer than 3 goals. In fact, Santa Clara has turned the score around in only 2 instances out of 10 matches in which they conceded first.

The Santa Clara team appears to be regaining their form after a four-match winless streak. They have shown promise and determination, as indicated by their respectable 5th place in the league, which is quite significant for a club of their stature battling for survival. Their latest victory against Gil Vicente (0-1) has undoubtedly bolstered their confidence ahead of this upcoming match against Nacional, and the management, led by Vasco Matos, aims to push for a second consecutive win and secure their top-five standing.

Team analysis: Nacional

The visiting team currently occupies the 11th position, having gained 29 points with 8 wins, 5 draws, and 13 losses. In their penultimate match, they suffered a defeat away to Benfica (0-3), but bounced back with a home win against Casa Pia (3-1) in their latest outing. Nacional struggles when playing away, with their last 30 matches showing only 1 win, 3 draws, and 11 losses externally, compared to their home record of 9 victories, 2 draws, and 4 losses. In the league, Nacional has only managed to gather 5 points from 30 possible in their last 10 away matches, with 1 win, 2 draws, and 7 losses. They frequently find themselves trailing at half-time away, with a score of 1-0 recorded in 6 of their last 13 matches. Defensive concerns are evident, as they have conceded goals in 8 of their last 10 games, yet they do manage to score regularly, finding the net in 7 of those fixtures. Their away games tend to be low-scoring, with 9 of the last 13 matches ending with under 2.5 goals. Out of 26 league matches, Nacional has conceded the first goal 14 times and has not managed to overturn the scoreline in any of those encounters. They have had a notable period over the last 13 away matches where they scored 3 of their total 7 goals between the minutes 46-60.

Nacional has had a reasonably commendable season, and with their recent win, they have distanced themselves from the relegation zone by 6 points. This victory against Casa Pia, who currently sit in 7th place, adds to the satisfaction for the Madeiran side. Interestingly, this win marks their second consecutive triumph at home, where their manager Tiago Margarido has cultivated most of their points. However, the away form remains a concern, as they have lost 4 out of their last 5 away fixtures.
