The managers João Alves and Rui Barros are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Segunda Liga league table.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

8 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Académica has to build on here at Estádio EFAPEL. Académica are on a three game winning streak in their home games.

The fans are hoping that Académica will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the Segunda Liga game against Arouca. Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Sporting Braga II.
