Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Estoril & Boavista face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Taça De Portugal. All the pre-match information is available here!
Estoril have less rest than Boavista in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Taça De Portugal game only three days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Lusitano GC Evora, was also a home game here at Estádio António Coimbra da Mota. The away team is better rested.
Estoril form and stats
Last season their Taça De Portugal adventure ended in the 3rd round.3 victories, 2 draws and 0 defeats. That’s what Estoril have to build on here at Estádio António Coimbra da Mota in the Segunda Liga.
Estoril's last game was hosting Lusitano GC Evora and winning 5-0. In the preceding match a 1-0 victory visiting Vilafranquense.
As mentioned above, Estoril "killed" Lusitano GC Evora in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
The Estoril manager B. Nogueira Pinheiro has got the team scoring with 12 from 5 home games in the league. 6 goals have been conceded.
Boavista form and stats
They also participated in Taça De Portugal last season. This ended in the 3rd round.The visitors are W0-D4-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Primeira Liga.
The attacking players of Boavista have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 227 minutes. The Boavista goalkeeper Leonardo Cesar Jardim is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 217 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Rio Ave in their previous outing. The Primeira Liga match ended in a draw 0-0. Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Belenenses.
Boavista have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 5 league away games 7 goals have been scored. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Boavista have conceded 9 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
