Team News

Portimonense
Vizela
  • Lucas Ventura is back available and will probably start at the middle of the park.
  • Paulo Sérgio will likely return to a 3-5-2 shape here after using a 3-4-3 formation against SL Benfica
  • Essende netted a brace last weekend and has scored in each of the last three matches. He's expected to be full of beans for Sunday' match.
  • Lebedenko should start at centre-back once again, joining Anderson and Jota at the heart of the defense.

Prediction

  • Portimonense lost 4 of their last 6 matches and were beaten 4-0 by SL Benfica last time around. The 'Algarvios' are currently at the bottom three and will need points to escape the relegation zone.
  • FC Vizela are also fighting for survival, but need to improve at the back if they want to have top flight competition next season - they've conceded 9 goals in the last two games and wasted a 2-goal lead last time around.
  • This will be a 6-pointer on the battle to avoid relegation and neither team are expected to take too many risks and they could actually cancel each out.
