Casa Pia Atletico v Estoril

Casa Pia vs Estoril Preview

Casa Pia prevented a third league defeat on the trot in the Portuguese top flight last time out in the Primeira Liga when they inflicted a comprehensive 4-0 rout upon second from bottom outfit Vizela away from home and the hosts now return to their Estádio Municipal de Rio Maior looking for more of the same when they play host to Estoril, while the visitors will be going in search of a third win on the trot following recent back-to-back wins on home soil.

Casa Pia had previously stumbled to two defeats on the trot in the Portuguese top flight prior to their 4-0 thrashing of Vizela as Alexandre Santana's side had been handed losses by the likes of Estrela and Benfica while the bigger picture shows Casa Pia have managed to collect just three wins from their previous 11 games in the Primeira Liga.

Previous victories against Arouca and Vitoria Guimaraes have been overshadowed by six defeats though within this 11-game period and includes defeats on home soil at the hands of Famalicao, Farense and Benfica, so the hosts look to have their work cut out if they're to grab all three points here, let alone produce a repeat of last time's 4-0 scoreline.

Having scored a total of just six goals in their 13 home games (contributing to 10 of these 13 games resulting in Under 2.5 goals), we could be in for a low-scoring encounter on Monday night!

Estoril head into this upcoming clash at the Estádio Municipal de Rio Maior on the back of two home wins on the trot over Portimonense and Porto, both by 1-0 margins, at their Estádio António Coimbra da Mota which will give Vasco Seabra's side a welcome boost for this upcoming trip to face Casa Pia.

However, similar to their hosts Casa Pia, Estoril have also struggled to pick up league wins in the Primeira Liga in recent times as the visitors have collected just three victories from their previous 12 games overall along with being handed seven defeats in the process.

A previous 1-0 home win against Estrela has been outweighed by the seven losses incurred which include slipping to defeats on the road at Sporting Lisbon, Boavista and Benfica, so the prospects of an away win here also seem unlikely to eventuate, especially as Estoril have picked up just the one win from their last 25 outings on the road!

Casa Pia v Estoril Verdict

If you're looking for goals then watching Casa Pia at their Estádio Municipal de Rio Maior has not been the place to go as 10 of Casa Pia's 13 home games have resulted in Under 2.5 goals with the hosts scoring just six goals in total!

Therefore, our main bet will be Under 2.5 goals @ 1.61
