The away team is currently in the 9th position of the league, with 15 points won, after 4 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Boavista, by (0‑2). In the last match, they won in a home match against Moreirense, by (3‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 7 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 13 goals scored and 29 conceded; against 6 wins, 7 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 17 conceded. Their last away match was for the Taça de Portugal and ended in a win by (2‑4) after a penalty shootout against Alverca. In the last 6 away league matches Rio Ave has a record of 1 win and 5 losses, so they have won 3 points out of 18 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 12 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 6 of their 15 goals between minutes (76'‑90') and 6 of their 15 goals between (0'‑15').
The Rio Ave team has finally managed to secure two consecutive wins, making a leap in the league standings. Considering they also eliminated Alverca in a Portuguese Cup match, it amounts to three positive results in a row. This is the context Rio Ave will rely on as they aim to remain unbeaten in the challenging setting of Santa Clara's home ground. It will be a true test, especially given that, in six away matches so far, Rio Ave has only won the most recent one, which might also reinforce the notion that the team is showing signs of improvement.
