Team News

Vizela
Arouca
  • Ivanildo and Bruno Wilson will be in competition to start at the heart of the defence.
  • Samuel Essende will probably get the nod over Unzueta up front.
  • Benji Michel and Vitinho are the only injury concerns for the visitors.
  • Kouassi won't be available after being sent off last time out. Uri Busquets could start as a result.

Prediction

  • FC Vizela were very close to springing an upset against Sporting CP in their first Primeira Liga match but ended up losing in the ninth minute of added time.
  • Despite being in a losing position three times and playing with 10 men for almost an hour, FC Arouca ended up beating Estoril 4-3 last Sunday, which would normally boost morale. However, Daniel Ramos' men lost 3-1 to Brann in midweek, which could mitigate that effect.
  • With that in mind, and given that the visitors are likely to be fatigued after Thursday's match, FC Vizela might get their first win in the league.
