No payout for Santa Clara in their previous match, an away game at Famalicão that ended in defeat 0-1. Sagna, defender, was given a rating of 7.43/10 in that game, top of the team. Sagna hit two key passes and won 6 of 8 duels.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Arouca (1-2).

A 0-5 defeat away at Sporting Braga before that.
