Team News

Arouca
Vizela
  • Rafael Fernandes or Matías Rocha will be paired with Javi Montero at the heart of the defence.
  • Other than that, Daniel Sousa should name an unchanged side for Sunday.
  • Nuno Moreira is fully fit once again and could start out wide.
  • FC Vizela will likely return to the usual 4-3-3 shape, with Bustamante replacing Lebedenko.

Prediction

  • After three consecutive defeats, FC Arouca got back to winning ways as they defeated Estoril away from home. They've been porous at the back, however, conceding in each of their last five games.
  • FC Vizela have fallen to back-to-back defeats prior to this match, losing to Sporting and Boavista FC by a three-goal margin. In that run, they've conceded nine goals and are expected to be low on confidence.
  • With an in-form attacking trio, FC Arouca should be able to avenge their recent defeat to FC Vizela in the Portuguese Cup. A home win is expected here.
