Leca form and stats
Leca have reached this Taça De Portugal stage through battling and winning against Lusitania FC Lourosa and Pombal. Leca participated in Taça De Portugal the last season, where they reached the 1st round.Leca's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Castro Daire.
A strong away win before that one, visiting Pombal and winning 4-0.Arouca form and stats
Arouca's mission in Taça De Portugal last season failed in the 3rd round.0 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Arouca playing as the away team in the Primeira Liga this season.
Arouca failed to get anything from their last game, a Primeira Liga home match vs Sporting CP that ended with defeat 1-2. It's worrying for Arouca that their goalkeeper Fernando Castro made six saves in the Sporting CP fixture, but still couldn't hinder a beating. Midfield player Leandro Silva was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.31/10. Silva hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
A 1-2 defeat away at Moreirense before that.The visitors have scored 3 goals from 4 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The Arouca manager A. Macedo Freitas has some worries about the defense as 9 goals have been conceded in these travels.
