ℹ️ Team News: Vizela
Looking at personnel, there is just the lone fitness concern for the Vizela gaffer Rubén de la Barrera to be concerned with due to a largely intact group of players. Francesco Ruberto (Muscle injury) won’t play.
It’s our opinion that Vizela may well make use of the 4-4-2 formation in the match, beginning the first half with Fabijan Buntic, Tomas Silva, Jota Goncalves, Joao Rodrigo Escoval, Orest Lebedenko, Jason Eyenga-Lokilo, Aleksandar Busnic, Samu, Matias Lacava, Sava Petrov and Samuel Essende.
📰 Team News: Chaves
Chaves manager Moreno Teixeira has to choose a team with limited availability. Bruno Rodrigues (unknown injury), Cafú Phete (unknown injury) and Sandro Cruz (unknown injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.
We reckon that Chaves could decide to begin the game with a 3-5-2 formation, starting Rodrigo Moura, Vasco Fernandes, Junior Pius, Ygor, Carraca, Dario Essugo, Raphael Guzzo, Guima, Bernardo Sousa, Hector Hernandez and Ruben Ribeiro.
💭 Prediction
In this match, Chaves should get enough chances to find the back of the net against this Vizela outfit, but that probably won’t quite be enough to avoid a loss.
We can see a very close game with a 2-1 victory for Vizela at the end of the match.
