Team News

Estrela da Amadora
Arouca
  • Travassos might start at the right-hand side of the defense, replacing Danilo Veiga.
  • Pinho and Kikas will be in competition to lead the line here.
  • With Henrique Araújo back available, Vasco Seabra might opt to move Trezza out wide.
  • Pedro Santos should return to action, replacing Loum at Arouca' engine room.

Prediction

  • Estrela da Amadora have only won one of their last five games, which has brought the team close to the relegation zone. They have relied on the home factor to stay in the battle to avoid relegation - 8 of their 9 points came from their last 4 games at Reboleira.
  • As expected, Arouca lost 2-0 to Benfica but had some good moments during the match and even managed to trouble the Eagles. There have been improvements since Vasco Seabra took over as coach and it could be a matter of time before they climb out of the relegation places.
  • Playing in Amadora, however, has its challenges, especially against a Estrela side that knows how to capitalise on the home factor. With this in mind, Arouca may have to wait before escaping the bottom of the table.
