National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Torreense or Alverca that keep their silverware dream alive.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Torreense form and stats
Torreense have not come this way in the Taça De Portugal without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating Uniao Idanhense and Uniao Almeirim. Last season their Taça De Portugal adventure ended in the 2nd round.OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Torreense's two home games in the 2. Division: Group F so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Campo Manuel Marques.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Torreense, who played 1-1 against Loures. That match was also played at this venue (Campo Manuel Marques). Ahead of that match, Torreense won a home game hosting Sintrense (2-0).
Early season league goal statistics from Torreense's 2 home games: 3 goals, 1 conceded.
Alverca form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Guadalupe and Camacha in order to reach 3rd Round of Taça De Portugal. Last season their Taça De Portugal adventure ended in the 4th round.Alverca are yet to lose a point on their 2. Division: Group F travels this season with 3 wins from 3 away games. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Caldas game have they lost an away game, meaning Alverca has taken points from 19 away matches in a row. Impressively, the visitors are on a eight-match winning run which they hope continue versus Torreense.
Prior to that match, a home win 5-1 against 1 Dezembro in the 2. Division: Group F.
As mentioned above, Alverca was the only team on the pitch versus Fatima in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task.
The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Alverca alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (12 from 3 played). The Alverca defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (1 goal in 3 games).
