The visiting Farense side should be favourites in this visit to Cova Piedade, as the away team holds a 6 point advantage from their six league games this season.

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.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Farense have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 1-2-1 (win-draw-loss) from four matches.
