In a weekend match in week 7, on Sun Sep 18th, Casa Pia will host Famalicão at Estádio Pina Manique in a Primeira Liga match. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 26 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. 6th placed Casa Pia is fresh off their 3-2 win against Paços de Ferreira. Adrián Butzke struck first for Paços de Ferreira in the 17th minute on a feed from Luiz Carlos, then Saviour Godwin tied it up for Casa Pia in the 58th minute But luckily in the 60th minute, they were able to complete the comback with a goal by Neto. Casa Pia is looking for direction having earned 15 points in their last 10 matches, while famalicão is fresh off their 0-1 loss against Benfica. Rafa Silva struck first for Benfica in the 63rd minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Famalicão was frustrated by Benfica’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Benfica ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 4 of their last 10.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Casa Pia’s most prolific scorer has been Saviour Godwin. He has netted 2 goals over the last five matches.
