Feirense are returning here after visiting Casa Pia in a Segunda Liga game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Higor Platiny scored the goal(s). Before that, Feirense had a home game versus Vilafranquense which ended with a victory 2-1.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of F. Paula da Rocha when Higor Platiny scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 69th minute.
This is expected to be a close game, with Feirense perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.
