Winning 9 out of their 27 matches gives them momentum, especially after thrashing AVS 4-1 in their last encounter. They have scored 33 goals while conceding 30, indicating a more potent attack but also some defensive lapses. Famalicão has been effective on the road, taking part in 10 draws, showing their ability to remain competitive in challenging environments.

Head-to-Head
