Team News

Casa Pia AC
Boavista
  • Clau should start upfront as he's the only pure striker available for the hosts, although João Pereira could opt for a false 9, with Max Svensson playing on that role.
  • Nuno Moreira scored on Casa Pia' last test before the season opener and might get the nod over Henrique Pereira as a result.
  • Bozenik would normally feature upfront but he's on his way out and shouldn't feature at all.
  • Pedro Malheiro' departure and Gonçalo Almeida' injury will force Bacci to adapt one of his players to the right-hand side of the defense with Pedro Gomes being the main candidate.

Prediction

  • Casa Pia have hired João Pereira, one of Portugal's most promising coaches. Aged 32, he has already done excellent work with Alverca and Amora in the Portuguese 3rd tier.
  • Boavista have had a troubled summer due to financial issues and will not be able to sign new players, so they will have some difficulties to face next season. As a result, they won't be able to aspire to anything more than staying at top flight.
  • Given the delicate situation of their next opponents, Casa Pia have everything in their favour to emerge victorious from Saturday. A home win is the most likely scenario here.
