Our call

Nothing to take on Académica Coimbra against Leixões SC. There is a likely outcome here, but every bookmaker has it shorter than it deserves, so there is nothing to take.
Preview
Académica Coimbra sit seventh in the Liga Portugal 2 table, but their home form remains oddly poor. Antonio Barbosa fields a 4-3-3 setup, while Carlos Fangueiro still settles into life managing Leixões SC down in tenth place with a 4-4-2 formation. Both outfits collected three wins from their last six outings, yet Leixões managed three clean sheets during that stretch. The previous meeting finished one-nil, and Académica have won four of their last four matches against opponents sitting below them in the standings. That sharp record against lower-ranked teams tilts the pitch, meaning Académica should edge the battle and take the points.
