In the first half, Estrela never surpassed over 1.5 goals, while Tondela did so once in 5 games. In the second half, Estrela recorded over 1.5 goals in 4 out of 5 matches, Tondela in 2 out of 5.

Despite occasional bursts of scoring in the second half, both teams generally have low attacking productivity and rarely exceed the over 2.5 goals total. Considering this data, a bet on under 2.5 goals at 1.64 seems logical: both teams rarely score, and Tondela is quite solid defensively.

In terms of corner outcomes, Estrela is favored with odds of 1.99. Given Estrela's low activity in corner kicks and Tondela's moderate level, a bet on over 7.5 corners seems justified, but don't expect a large number of corners.
