In a highly anticipated Liga Portugal match, Moreirense hosts Estoril with both teams struggling for form. Moreirense has managed just one win in their last 10 matches, showing defensive frailties yet scoring in most encounters. Estoril fares not much better, having lost three consecutive matches, with a poor away record and defense. Historical clashes between the two have regularly resulted in high-scoring affairs, suggesting Monday's match is likely to follow suit. Fans can expect an exciting, goal-laden match as both sides aim to end their poor run.

Moreirense host Estoril in a Monday night Liga Portugal fixture, with both teams struggling to find their best form at the moment. 

Separated by one point in the table, both teams are practically evenly matched heading into this clash. With poor defending among their problems lately, they could be set to offer up goals here. 

Moreirense News 


Moreirense do not appear to be ending the season on a high note as they head into this clash with just one win in their last 10 matches. They were held to a 1-1 draw at Famalicao last time out, with Rodri’s first-half effort cancelled out by the hosts after the break. 

Vasco Costa’s team will come into this clash desperate to get things back on track, but their home form has also been dodgy lately. They are winless in eight of their last 10 Liga Portugal matches in front of their fans. 

One of the issues for Moreirense is their defensive vulnerability, having failed to keep a clean sheet in eight of their last 10 Liga Portugal matches. However, they have scored in six fixtures in this run, while five of those matches have produced over 2.5 goals. 

Estoril News 


Estoril are not much better than the hosts, having lost their last three Liga Portugal matches. Ian Cathro’s team fell to a 3-1 home defeat to leaders FC Porto in their previous fixture.

Things are also unconvincing on the road for Estoril, who have picked up just four wins in their last 10 away matches. The other six fixtures in this run have ended in defeat, including a 4-0 thrashing at Famalicao. 

Like the hosts, Estoril are also poor at the back and are without a clean sheet in eight of their last 10 matches, with all eight fixtures producing over 2.5 goals. However, they have scored at least one first-half goal in five of their last seven away matches in the league. 

Head to Head


Estoril have 12 wins while Moreirense have been victorious seven times, with eight draws in the last 21 matches. Both teams battled to a 3-3 draw in the reverse fixture back in September. 

Verdict

Moreirense and Estoril often served up thrilling contests, and both teams have scored in their last five meetings. With neither defence looking solid at the moment, that trend is expected to continue on Monday.
 
There have also been over 2.5 goals in the last five matches between both teams, and a repeat could be on the cards. With Moreirense scoring at least one first-half goal in five of their last seven away matches, a similar pattern could be considered.
