  • Pantalón got injured prior to the match against Estrela and will miss out here. Josué Sá will replace him if recovered. Otherwise, Miguel Nóbrega will likely feature from the outset.
  • With Amine still injured, Teixeira and Tanlongo will probably start at the middle of the park.
  • Daniel Sousa will have a full squad to pick from on Friday night.
  • Robson Bambu and Galovic will be in competition to start be paired with Javi Montero at the heart of the defense.

Prediction

  • A stoppage time goal from Vrousai gave Rio Ave FC an important draw against Estrela da Amadora. They haven't lost in the last 7 matches, allowing them to breathe easier at the league table.
  • FC Arouca earned their 3rd consecutive win last time out, beating Boavista FC by 2-1, which allowed them to reach Moreirense FC at 5th place. Daniel Sousa' men will be confident heading into Friday' game.
  • This should be an interesting match between two sides who are enjoying good runs of form. With that in mind, they might cancel each out and a draw is on the cards.
