Famalicão

WLWLWW

Famalicão will be looking for a repeat result of the 1-2 Primeira Liga victory against Arouca.

In that match, Famalicão managed 42% possession and 6 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. For Famalicão, goals were scored by Óscar Aranda (35') and Mirko Topić (76'). Arouca got 15 attempts on goal with 8 on target. Henrique Araújo (71') scored for Arouca.

Famalicão haven’t been able to stop scoring goals, hitting the target every time they’ve gone out to play in their last 6 games.

They’ve totted up the amount of 11 during that period and have conceded a total of 7. That sort of pattern might not follow through here, of course.

Their prior results show that Famalicão:

• have left without a victory over Estoril in their previous 3 league matches.
• are undefeated in their last 5 league matches at home.

Estoril

WLDDLW ⚖

📰 Team News: Famalicão

There aren’t many personnel worries, with just a single fitness concern for the Famalicão gaffer Hugo Oliveira to contend with thanks to an otherwise robust group. Ivan Zlobin (Kidney problems) is out of contention.

It’s our opinion that Famalicenses may well line up in a 4-2-3-1 system for this one, beginning the first half with Lazar Carevic, Rodrigo Pinheiro, Enea Mihaj, Justin De Haas, Pedro Bondo, Mathias De Amorim, Tommie van de Looi, Sorriso, Gustavo Sa, Oscar Aranda and Simon Elisor.

📰 Team News: Estoril

In an otherwise full-strength group of players, there is just the lone fitness problem for the Estoril gaffer Ian Cathro to be concerned about. Joel Robles (unknown injury) won’t be in action.

We reckon that Canarinhos could decide to make use of a 3-4-3 system, starting Kevin Chamorro, Kevin Boma, Felix Bacher, Pedro Alvaro, Wagner Pina, Xeka, Jordan Holsgrove, Pedro Amaral, Yanis Begraoui, Andre Lacximicant and Joao Carvalho.

🧠 Prediction

In our view, Estoril should have enough to score against this Famalicão outfit, although it realistically won’t prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

We think that it’s going to be a close game with a 2-1 winning margin for Famalicão after 90 minutes. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
