Competition: Portugal Segunda Liga

Match begins: 17:15 (UTC)
Venue: Estádio Municipal José dos Santos Pinto (3000 seats)

It's early days in the Segunda Liga and the teams are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Vilafranquense have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 11-10-11 (win-draw-loss) from 32 matches.
