🗞️ Team News: Vitória Guimarães

It looks as if Os Vimaranenses could employ a 4-2-3-1 formation for the game, beginning the first half with Bruno Varela, Maga, Toni Borevkovic, Filipe Relvas, Joao Mendes, Beni, Tomas Handel, Vando Felix, Joao Mendes, Gustavo Silva and Jesus Ramirez.

📰 Team News: Farense

In an otherwise available squad, there is just the sole fitness issue for the Farense gaffer Tozé Marreco to contend with. Ricardo Velho (Knee surgery) misses out for this game.

We reckon that Farense seem likely to play in a 4-3-1-2 lineup using Kaique, Pastor, Marco Moreno, Tomas Ribeiro, Paulo Victor, Rony Lopes, Claudio Falcao, Samuel Justo, Yusupha Njie, Tomane and Rui Costa.

⚡ Prediction

We’re thinking that Vitória Guimarães are likely to be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.

However, Farense may well find it hard to get a goal of their own although we do think it’s probable that they will be managing to get on the scoresheet, too.

Accordingly, we see a 3-1 victory for Vitória Guimarães after 90 minutes.
