Team News

Estoril
AVS Futebol SAD
  • Pedro Álvaro completed a series of bookings and won't feature here. Bacher should replace him.
  • Pedro Amaral got injured last weekend against FC Porto and will likely be replaced by Gonçalo Costa here.
  • With Baptiste Roux injured, Jorge Teixeira should be paired with Devenish at the heart of the defense.
  • Tunde and Assunção are back available and will bring fresh legs to the visitors on Saturday.

Prediction

  • Estoril were thrashed 4-0 by FC Porto, a result that is understandable given the disparity between the teams. Before that, Ian Cathro's men had put in a positive display at home to Arouca and will be looking to replicate that here.
  • In a thrilling game, Aves lost 3-2 at home to FC Famalicão. The team has now gone five games without a win in the Primeira Liga and will have to reverse this trend if they want to drop into the relegation zone.
  • Estoril's form has been intermittent, something that could give the visitors hope, but the truth is that they haven't been great in recent games either and, unless they correct their defensive weaknesses, the most likely outcome on Saturday is a home win.
