HTH - Tenth Clash

Relegation Concerns for Casa Pia


Casa Pia haven’t won in seven matches and currently occupy the relegation play-off position. They are undefeated in seven home games but haven’t won on the road since December.

Alvaro Pacheco’s side have drawn three straight in Rio Maior, including a 1-1 draw against Benfica.

The Geese drew 0-0 against Santa Clara last time out despite having 1.27-0.20 xG, Pedro Rosas hitting the woodwork in the second half

Pacheco thought his side deserved to win: "We deserved it today. It was a game between two teams fighting to avoid relegation. Emotionally, it was going to be very intense.

"We knew we had to be a very intelligent team strategically. And we were. Santa Clara didn't have a single goal-scoring opportunity."

Braga Still Alive in Europe


Braga are flying high after an incredible victory over Real Betis the Europa League. Held to a 1-1 draw in the first leg at home, they came from 2-0 down in Spain to win 4-2 and reach the semi-finals.

Fran Navarro scored in the 2nd minute against Famalicao on Sunday before the Warriors fell 2-1 behind. Ricardo Horta stepped up to score a penalty deep into added time to secure a 2-2 draw.

Carlos Vicens talked about fatigue after the performance: "We knew there were several players who weren't at 100 percent. It's football, it happens to teams that play many high-level games during the season, that are in European competitions.

"It's not an excuse, the team gets tired because they want to play in the opponent's half, in the second half the team wanted to win the game.

"We played in the opponent's half, but we had a setback in the form of a goal, but the team never gave up, fought until the end and in the end we managed to get a point."
