Zé Carlos (unknown injury), Kiko (unknown injury) and Stanislav Kritsyuk (unknown injury) won’t be able to feature for Gil Vicente boss Vítor Campelos.

It looks as if Gilistas will possibly line up in a 4-3-3 formation in the match, utilising Andrew, Alex Pinto, Gabriel Pereira, Ruben Fernandes, Leonardo Buta, Maxime Dominguez, Mory Gbane, Martim Neto, Tidjany Toure, Ali Alipour and Felix Correia.

📋 Team News: Famalicão

Thanks to a mainly healthy squad, there is only a single fitness worry for the Famalicão gaffer João Pedro Sousa to be concerned with. Henrique Araújo (Ankle injury) won’t be in action.

We are inclined to think that Famalicenses seem likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 lineup, starting the game with Luiz Junior, M. Aguirregabiria, Enea Mihaj, Justin De Haas, Francisco Moura, Zaydou Youssouf, Mirko Topic, Sorriso, Gustavo Sa, Chiquinho and Jhonder Cadiz.
