Team News

Nacional
Moreirense
  • Miguel Baeza is the only unavailable player for the hosts here.
  • Daniel Penha and Soumaré will be in competition to start at the middle of the park.
  • Liberato, Hernâni and Ofori remain as Moreirense' injury concerns.
  • Schettine will likely lead the line after scoring the winner last time around.

Prediction

  • A goal in the 7th minute of stoppage time prevented Nacional from picking up any points last weekend, which must have dented the team's morale. They're in the bottom three and will be looking to capitalise on the home advantage to try and get into a more comfortable position.
  • Shortly after eliminating FC Porto from the Portuguese Cup, Moreirense managed to beat leaders Sporting last weekend, meaning they beat two title contenders in the a 12 days period. César Peixoto' men should be full of confidence here.
  • With less pressure and higher spirit levels, it's expected that the visitors will be able to take something from the game at Choupana.
