Mafra

Santa Clara bring superior recent form into this knockout clash, having avoided defeat in each of their last five matches with three wins and two draws. During that span, they allowed only two goals and posted clean sheets against SC Braga, Rio Ave, and Casa Pia. Mafra, meanwhile, have conceded two goals in three of their last four matches, including back-to-back 2-2 draws at home. Santa Clara also proved capable at this ground with a 2-0 win on their last trip to Mafra in May 2024. Backing Santa Clara on the double chance accounts for both a regulation victory and a draw.

Mafra hold home territory and have found the net in each of their last five matches across all competitions, including a 1-0 victory in their prior home contest against SC Covilha. While Tirsense have secured three wins in their last four outings, their recent 2-1 away loss at Celoricense demonstrates defensive gaps on the road. Backing Mafra on the double chance provides strong probability coverage for the host avoiding defeat.

Atlético Malveira have failed to win any of their last five matches (two draws, three defeats) and have scored just twice in that span, including back-to-back shutout losses against Os Marialvas (0-1) and Fátima (0-5). Mafra possess greater scoring potential, shown in their 5-0 win over Vitória de Sernache—a side that defeated Malveira 3-0 in May 2026. The double chance covering a Mafra win or draw offers a well-supported position.
