Crucial shoot-out in the lower part of the Liga Portugal, with both Vizela and Portimonense experiencing more anxiety than happiness. This fixture is a typical "six-pointer" with the host team placed 14th and the visiting team in 16th place.
- Vizela haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
- Portimonense have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
