Team News

Santa Clara
Estrela da Amadora
  • Other than Pacheco, Vasco Matos will have a full squad to pick from.
  • Despite the 4-1 loss to Benfica last weekend, Santa Clara' gaffer will likely name an unchanged Starting XI here.
  • Filipe Martins might make a few changes to his side due to their recent form. With that in mind, Miguel Lopes, Bucca and Jovane might be part of the Starting XI.
  • Nani will be boosted after netting a wonderful goal last time around.

Prediction

  • As anticipated, Santa Clara were unable to stop Benfica at the Estádio da Luz and lost 4-1. However, this result doesn't erase the excellent games they've been playing and it's to be that they'll get back on track.
  • Estrela have failed to win for the fifth game in a row, which is increasing the pressure over Filipe Martins' shoulders. Last time out, the tricolores could only manage a two-goal draw against Boavista last Monday.
  • Momentum is not in Estrela's favour, but the truth is that they have never lost to Santa Clara in official matches, having won 5 of the 9 games played between the two teams. Even so, they can't be expected to continue this trend.
