Chaves or Draw

We start with what we think is a very safe Estoril vs Chaves prediction. We believe that the visitors will be able to avoid defeat in this match. Our betting tip is backed by the fact that Estoril lost 8 of their last 9 league games. At the same time, Chaves had been solid on the road where they lost just 2 of their last 7 (W1 D4). Also, Chaves have lost only once in the last 6 matches vs Estoril (W3 D2).

Over 1.5 Chaves Goals

Our second Estoril vs Chaves prediction is a bit risky. Still, we believe Chaves will be able to score at least 2 goals in the match. Estoril’s defending had been dreadful lately, they conceded 2 or more in 8 of the last 9 rounds. Chaves scored at least 1 goal in 5 of the last 6 H2Hs, they scored 2 in 3 of those matches. Clearly the visitors know where the back of the net is when they face Estoril and that’s why we back them.

Over 2.5 Goals

Our final Estoril vs Chaves prediction is also on the Goals Market. We believe the game will have at least 3 total goals. Both teams had been shaky defensively lately and we think the forward lines will try to exploit that.

Estoril saw 4 of their last 6 matches going well over 2.5 goals, there were 2 goals scored in the other 2 games. Chaves also went well over 3 total goals in 3 of the last 4 rounds.

Estoril vs Chaves Lineups and Team News

Estoril

Estoril suffered their fifth consecutive defeat when losing 2-3 on their visit to Porto. Despite putting up a spirited fight and equalising twice Estoril continued to look very poor in defence and this was yet another game in which they allowed 20+ shot attempts.

Latest news

The health of the squad is good. There will be a big absentee though as the key playmaker and most creative player of the team Francisco Geraldes sits out this match suspended. Gamboa or Guitane are likely to be asked to fill the void. Both of them were very inconsistent in their displays all season.

Chaves

Chaves stopped a 3-game losing run with a solid 2-0 home victory vs Portimonense. Juninho played well and scored the crucial first goal. Chaves had luck helping them too as their visitors missed 2 penalties in this match.

Despite a drop in form recently Chaves remain 13 points above the relegation zone and they are not under any pressure.

Latest news

Chaves will be without their backup goalkeeper Moura for this trip. He is serving a ban. With the regular goalie Paulo Vitor out injured this would mean a first start between the posts for the third-choice goalie Goncalo Filipe. Several other players are reported to be doubtful due to knocks, but it seems all the regular field starts are fit and available.
