This is the Girabola season opener for these teams, who are finally competing for points again. Who will get that important first win?
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Onze Bravos have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 3-7-16 (win-draw-loss) from 26 matches. It's quite the trip for Onze Bravos when visiting Desportivo Huíla as the cities are 1200 kilometers apart.
