Moreirense VS Casa Pia live preview Primeira Liga
Moreirense:
Moreirense and Casa Pia are engaged in a tight battle in the Primeira Liga, aiming for Europa Conference League spots alongside Vitoria Guimaraes. With the top six likely securing European football, both clubs are ahead of the seventh-placed team but face challenges in breaking into the top four. Moreirense, in particular, has enjoyed an impressive 10-game unbeaten streak, showcasing defensive solidity with seven clean sheets. Notable wins against Guimaraes and a draw against Benfica have highlighted their recent performances, but upcoming matches against tougher opponents like Porto, Braga, and Sporting will test their ambitions.
Casa Pia:
On the other hand, Casa Pia, currently just two points off seventh, is focused on staying out of the relegation zone. While performing stoutly, they face the challenge of maintaining their away form, which has been crucial in securing points. With 11 points from eight away games, they possess one of the best away records in the division, compensating for their limited home points, currently standing at just five.
Analysis:
Moreirense can rely on Ponck and Kobamelo Kodisang, who were not selected for international duty, to contribute against Casa Pia. Despite their defensive strength, striker Andre Luis has been in excellent form, earning the man of the match award in three of the last five games. Casa Pia's Brazilian forward Clayton, with six league goals, joins Andre Luis in providing a goal threat, but they will miss Kiki due to injury. However, the absence of Yuki Soma and Beni, not called up for international duty, could impact Casa Pia's lineup.
