After making it back-to-back winners in Valencia on Saturday, Sunday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me delve into the Portuguese second tier, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ CD Tondela vs Maritimo
🇵🇹 Liga Pro
⏰ Sunday 19 January, 15:30
Third-placed Tondela will look to potentially climb top of the Portuguese Liga Pro table tomorrow afternoon as they welcome struggling Maritimo to the Estadio Joao Cardoso in a fixture that appeals to me for goals.
Luis Pinto’s hosts are the leading scorers in the Portuguese Liga Pro, slamming in 34 goals across their opening 17 matches, with 16 (47%) of them coming in front of their supporters.
The Auriverdes have found the back of the net in all 17 (100%) of their league outings, notching on multiple occasions in an impressive 12 (71%) of them – including in 6/8 (75%) of them on home soil – and will be confident of maintaining their record of finding the target against a Maritimo defence that has kept just two clean sheets in the league this season, shipping 2+ goals in each of their past four and six of their last eight.
Ivo Vieira’s visitors have scored 23 goals across their opening 17 contests in the Portuguese second tier this term, with an impressive 15 (65%) of them coming on their travels.
Os Verde-Rubros have found the back of the net in all bar two of their league encounters – notching on multiple occasions in four of their past six road trips – and will look to trouble a Tondela defence that has kept just four clean sheets in the league this season, with two (50%) of them coming against two of the bottom three.
Bet of the Day
Tondela’s opening 17 matches in the Portuguese second tier this term have averaged a league-high 3.18 goals per game, with Both Teams to Score banking in a joint league-best 13 (76%) of them.
Marítimo’s opening 17 contests in the Portuguese second tier have averaged an impressive 3.06 goals per game, with Both Teams to Score also landing in a joint league-best 13 (76%) of them.
What’s more, this fixture tends to produce goals, with the previous 12 meetings averaging 3.33 goals per game, with Both Teams to Score landing in nine (75%) of them – including a 2-2 draw in the reverse fixture back in August – and I’m happy to have a play on these two sides finding the target once again.
