Pronostic Liga Portugal
After the holidays where football was absent in certain championships, it resumes its good habits in Liga Portugal with the 17th day which pits Nacional against FC Porto. In a tempting title race where the Portistas have the same number of points as Sporting Portugal (leader thanks to goal difference), this trip to one of the poor students of the championship must be a formality. Indeed, the opponent of the group coached by Vitor Bruno is first relegated, which represents a form of motivation for the blue and white team. With four wins in a row for as many clean sheets and a whopping sixteen goals scored, the Dragons are in the best possible conditions to leave with three points at the end of the 90 minutes. Everyone expects the Tripeiros to win in style this Friday evening.
The situation is delicate for the Nacional. Only one success has been observed since mid-November and the recent results are quite disastrous. In 270 minutes spent on Portuguese soil, the men led by Martin Lasarte have only taken one unit out of nine possible, while conceding two goals on average during this delicate period. We might as well tell you that confidence is not present before challenging one of the contenders for the title. Barring an XXL performance at the start of the weekend, it is quite possible that the Bolsos will return to the last places in the ranking at the end of regulation time.
