Match Preview
Olimpico do Montijo will host Mafra in the Taça de Portugal on Saturday, 21 September, at Campo da Liberdade. The home side has struggled recently, recording three consecutive losses before bouncing back with two wins. In contrast, Mafra comes into this fixture in strong form, having won four of their last five matches, including a solid away victory. This disparity in form could be a crucial factor, as Mafra looks to maintain momentum in the cup competition.
Historically, the two teams have faced each other ten times, with Olimpico do Montijo securing just one win, indicating a significant advantage for Mafra. The odds heavily favour the visitors at 1.16, reflecting their current form and head-to-head dominance. While the over 2.5 goals market sits at 1.44, the lack of consistent scoring from Olimpico may limit the likelihood of a high-scoring affair. Expect Mafra to control the game and potentially exploit any defensive lapses from the hosts, making them the team to watch in this encounter.
