Tondela vs FC Porto B Betting Tips - BTTS

Sitting 11th and 6th, respectively, just five points separate these sides; however, neither are in great form, with Porto B ending a four-game winless streak last weekend while Tondela has managed only two wins in their last eight league runouts.

With both teams likely to play with relative freedom considering their league status, we expect an open contest with chances at both ends. Goals seem likely, with both teams performing relatively well in the BTTS and over 2.5 goals markets in recent weeks. On the road, Porto B have seen over 2.5 goals in 12 of their last 13 away league fixtures, while six of their last nine also saw BTTS. 

Hosts Tondela, while not so prolific in the over 2.5 goal market, have seen BTTS in five of their last six home games and given these sides' respective league placings, a similar outcome looks to have a good chance at decent odds. These sides also played out a 1:1 draw when meeting earlier this season. In addition, seven of eight previous contests over the past decade also saw both teams hitting the target. 

Ultimately, with nothing to play for, small stakes are advised for this Segunda Liga fixture, although we should still see a carefree contest with both capable of getting on the scoresheet.
