Caldas SC
- Caldas SC have won two of their three home Liga 3 games in 2025-2026, scoring four times.
- Just 11 days after edging Lusitano Ginasio Clube Evora 1-0 away from home in the previous matchup, Caldas SC welcome the same side to their own patch in what could prove another critical contest at the top of the Liga 3 table.
- Caldas are a pragmatic, structure-first side that are compact, but quick in transition.
Lusitano Ginasio Clube Evora
- Lusitano Ginasio Clube Evora have won one, drawn one, and lost one of their three away Liga 3 matches in 2025-2026, scoring 1.33 goals on average and conceding 1.67.
- Caldas have won three and lost two of their last five, while Lusitano have won two, drawn one and lost two of the last five, so the momentum is with the visitors, who are fresh from an impressive 3-1 away win over Sporting Covilha after losing to Caldas.
- Lusitano are an attack-minded team, who like to play on the front foot, controlling possession and creating width to stretch opponents.
Head-to-Head
- Caldas SC and Lusitano Ginasio Clube Evora are level on 14 points apiece from five Liga 3 fixtures, sitting second and third respectively.
- The head-to-head record between these two is even, so we’re expecting a close game on Sunday, but Caldas should edge out Lusitano, who they beat away from home 11 days ago and who they haven’t lost to at home in recent encounters.
Key Players
- Dani Fernandes leads the line for Caldas with one goal from four Liga 3 appearances so far this season, but the striker can be a focal point for his team, especially on the break.
- Meanwhile, Lusitano have their own sharp striker in Diogo David, who is their top scorer so far with one from five in Liga 3.
Betting Insights
- Both sides have shown enough attacking intent to suggest that they can get on the board and make a game of this one, so we’re supporting both teams to score.
- Backing both teams to get on the scoresheet in this one looks a good option, with odds of 1.97 reflecting the close nature of the fixture.
Prediction
However, Caldas haven’t lost at home to Lusitano in recent encounters and we expect them to prevail again here.
