Casa Pia v Moreirense: top-half push meets survival fight | OneFootball

Casa Pia host Moreirense in Liga Portugal on Sunday, 1 March 2026 at Estádio Municipal de Rio Maior, with the visitors looking to consolidate a top-half spot while the hosts seek daylight from the relegation places.

Recent meetings have produced winners only, with no draws in the listed head to heads, including Moreirense's 2–1 home win in September. That adds edge to a match-up between sides with contrasting seasons so far.

Casa Pia's momentum has been improving at home, beating Porto and Arouca either side of a draw at Nacional before a setback at Famalicão. Moreirense's last five read win, loss, loss, win, loss, including defeat to Sporting CP after victory at Rio Ave.

Season profiles point to a stylistic contrast. Casa Pia average 43% possession with 75.02% pass accuracy and may look for moments in transition. Moreirense have 49% of the ball and an 83.08% completion rate, suggesting they could manage phases more reliably and create cleaner openings.

Routes to goal could hinge on delivery and box discipline. Casa Pia have attempted 247 open-play crosses at 19.84% accuracy and scored six headed goals, while Moreirense have conceded 10 penalties. For threats, Guilherme Schettine leads the visitors with nine league goals, supported by providers Dinis Pinto and Alan, while Jeremy Livolant's seven assists headline the hosts' creativity.

In the table picture, Casa Pia are 14th on 22 points and a win would push them further clear of the drop zone. Moreirense sit eighth with 33 points and victory would strengthen their top half standing and close the gap to the sides above.
