In their first season after returning to the elite society, Estoril enjoyed and quite easily secured survival, finishing in ninth position. The popular "Canarinhos" started the new season very confidently, they played well in the opening ten rounds, but after that, an unexpected drop in form followed which culminated in sliding from the eighth position to the 14th place, so that in at the moment, they are only four points behind the first team in the red zone.

Meanwhile, Casa Pia last season managed to win second place in the second football league in Portugal and ensure a return to the company of the best for the first time in more than eight decades - we repeat, the last time in the highest rank was in 1939. Newcomer, according to from everything shown so far, he didn't come to fight for survival, but for European competitions. They are decorated with a very brave game, where they are currently in a high position in the fifth position in the Primeira Liga table with 27 points won, which is only six points less than the third place Porto.

Estoril vs Casa Pia Betting Tips: AH2(0)

These two teams were members of Liga Portugal 2 in the seasons 2019/20 and 2020/21, they played four meetings, three of which ended in favor of Estoril, while the last clash ended without a winner, 1-1.

Estoril is shaking a serious result crisis, and what is even worse is the fact that this club does not find a way to get out of it. They did not feel the sweetness of victory for three full months, during which they managed to win only three points and suffered seven defeats in that period.

The defensive segment is definitely their weakest point, bearing in mind that Canarinhos registered only one "clean sheet" from the previous 11 games in all competitions, so the atmosphere in the club is chaotic.

Unlike them, Casa Pia is playing phenomenally in the continuation of the season. They secured the quarter-finals of the Taca de Portugal with a 1-0 victory over Setubal, before they triumphed over Portimonense (2-1) and held mighty Porto to a goalless draw, 0-0.

What soundsimpressive is the fact that "Os Gansos" play incomparably better away than at home. Only Sporting managed to inflict defeat on them in the so far 11 away games since the start of the season, recording as many as seven triumphs during that time.

When we add to that the fact that Estoril achieved the only home victory in the first round, then we can easily conclude why Casa Pia is much closer to victory in this clash. Indeed, Os Gansos "shine" this season, so we hope that they will take advantage of the poor momentum of the home team and take something from this visit.
