Arouca Hold Edge Over Nacional At Home
Arouca sit fifth in the Primeira Liga with 17 points from nine games, placing them well clear of Nacional who have seven points and sit 15th. Arouca enter the match with three wins from their last five league games. Nacional arrive with just one win in five and four losses during that run. At their own ground Arouca have averaged two goals scored and 0.8 conceded per match this season. Nacional have conceded an average of two goals in each away fixture so far. Head to head records show Arouca winning six of the last ten encounters between the sides. Much may depend on Arouca finding a way through Nacional’s defence which has kept only two clean sheets in nine games.
