Bottom Boys Battle - Goals On The Cards?

Right then, let's have a proper look at this basement battle in the Segunda Liga. Porto B are propping up the table with just 8 points, while Portimonense aren't much better off in 13th spot. Both sides are struggling for consistency, but there's one stat that jumps out at me like a sore thumb. Portimonense simply cannot keep clean sheets. Not a single one in their last 10 matches - that's a big fat zero percent! They're shipping goals for fun, especially on their travels where they're letting in 2.0 per game. But here's the thing - they do score more than Porto B (1.2 vs 0.7 per game), and they've found the net in 80% of their recent matches. Porto B have shown a bit of spark recently though. They've kept a couple of clean sheets themselves, including that handy 1-0 win at Chaves and a 1-0 home victory against Maritimo. At home, they're averaging a goal per game, which isn't too shabby for the league's bottom side. The head-to-head suggests goals too - 3 out of 4 meetings have seen over 2.5 goals. With Portimonense's defensive woes and both teams needing points to climb away from trouble, I'm expecting an open affair. Key Points: • Portimonense have 0% clean sheet rate in last 10 games • Both teams to score in 80% of Portimonense's recent matches • Porto B scoring 1.0 per game at home despite poor league position • 3 of 4 H2H meetings had over 2.5 goals • Both teams struggling in bottom half of table When you've got a team that literally cannot keep a clean sheet facing another that scores at home, the Both Teams To Score market looks like the smart money here. Simple as that.
