Leixoes are in decent shape, having won three of their last five matches, with one draw and one loss. Chaves are going through a rough patch, losing three of their last five and drawing the other two, so they haven't won in a while. When these two teams met recently, Chaves came out on top in the last two games, but before that they had a run of tight, low-scoring draws.

Recent meetings between these sides have generally been close and low on goals, with several ending level or decided by a single goal. Given Leixoes' better recent form and Chaves' struggles, Leixoes look the stronger side heading into this one, and they should be able to edge it.
