Arouca are coming into this match on the back of a solid away win, which snapped a rough run of three losses in a row. They’ve been struggling to find consistency, but that recent victory should give them a boost. Tondela, on the other hand, have been up and down, winning two of their last five matches but also losing twice. However, they have been scoring more regularly than Arouca in recent games.

The last three meetings between these two sides have all seen at least three goals, with Tondela winning two of those and the other ending in a draw. With both teams showing they can score and the head-to-head history suggesting goals, this match looks like it could be an open, entertaining game. Given the form and recent results, Arouca’s home advantage might just tip the balance, making a draw or a narrow home win the most likely outcome.
