Belenenses, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following the 0-1 LigaPro triumph versus Feirense.

It’s been all too rare in recent times where Belenenses have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Belenenses have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, leaking 9 goals in the process. We will have to find out if that trend will be continued on into this next match.

Tondela

WLLDDD

In the game prior to this, Tondela drew 1-1 in the LigaPro tie with União Torreense.

The only name on the scoresheet from Tondela was Rafael Barbosa (90'). João Vieira (41') was the scorer for União Torreense.
