Casa Pia: Form and Statistics

Casa Pia is currently in tenth place in the Primeira Liga standings and has maintained a two-point cushion over the relegation playoffs.

The Geese come into this match to return to winning ways. On Sunday, they were drawn against FC Porto and, judging by the quality on the field, were dominated. The game was already decided in the first half, with three goals conceded, and another in the second half, resulting in a damaging 4-0 defeat.

A return to Estadio Municipal de Rio Maior sees Joao Pereira's men still searching for their first home win. In their home campaign opener, they suffered a 2-0 defeat against the defending champions Sporting CP. This time, the indicators are pointing towards their victory, having defeated Nacional da Madeira 1-0 at this venue in the previous season.

Casa Pia: Team News

Casa Pia has six players who remain sidelined due to injury. This includes Ricardo Batista (injury), Yassin Oukili (injury), Kiki (injury), Claudio Mendes (knee injury), Raul Blanco (leg injury), and Kelian Nsona (injury).

With Yassin Oukili still in the injury room, Renato Nhaga is expected to cover for him until he fully recovers.

Despite suffering a damaging defeat to FC Porto, head coach Joao Pereira will name an unchanged lineup in a 3-4-3 setup. Cassiano will lead the attack, while Jeremy Livolant and Korede Osundina provide support from the wings.

Nacional da Madeira: Form and Statistics

Nacional da Madeira finds itself in a tricky position in the league standings. They are in 16th place within the relegation playoffs and are one point ahead of the relegation zone.

Madeira are still searching for their first league win after failing to do so in their first three game. However, they have managed to snatch a point in this period.

In their most recent league game, they welcomed defending champions Sporting CP to the Estadio da Madeira. Leo Santos opened the scoring for the home team in the first three minutes. Pablo Ruan's dismissal in the 37th minute threw their smooth progress off course as they conceded four goals in the second half to suffer a 4-1 defeat.

Discipline has been a major concern in the Nacional da Madeira camp. Pablo Ruan's dismissal marks him as the second player in three games to be suspended. Witi is the likely replacement for the suspended Ruan.

Regarding issues in the injury room, Nacional da Madeira is still without long-term absentee Miguel Baeza, who is nursing a muscle injury. Deivison, Ivanildo Fernandes, and Mootaz Nourani remain inactive.

Casa Pia vs Nacional da Madeira match prediction 30 August 2025

Casa Pia has been the better-performing side compared to Nacional da Madeira. They have also been dominant in this fixture, which is also a bonus to see them pick up three points. Revisiting old memories, this is the same team that beat this opponent 1-0 at home in the previous Primeira Liga season. The signs are pointing towards their triumph, and I'm not against that.

Nacional da Madeira are lacking confidence. I'm not expecting much from a side that has lost three consecutive league games. However, I do believe that they can get on the scoreboard in what will turn out to be a high-scoring affair. That said, I'm backing Casa Pia to secure maximum points in front of their home crowd.
