Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Vilafranquense & Sanjoanense face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Taça De Portugal. All the pre-match information is available here!
Vilafranquense and Sanjoanense should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
1-1-5 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Sanjoanense when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those seven matches are 3-12 (scored/conceded).
Vilafranquense form and stats
Vilafranquense have not come this way in the Taça De Portugal without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating Vidago. Last season their Taça De Portugal adventure ended in the 3rd round.Vilafranquense have collected 3 points from their Segunda Liga home games so far after 0-3-1. Vilafranquense are splitting points both home and away, currently holding an interesting streak of four drawn games in a row. The home fans are hungry for more even though Vilafranquense have been steadily collecting points here at Estádio Municipal de Rio Maior through three straight draws.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Vilafranquense, who played 0-0 against Academica. That match was also played at this venue (Estádio Municipal de Rio Maior). Before that, Vilafranquense played out a Segunda Liga draw 0-0 when visiting Chaves.
Vilafranquense have scored 2 goals here in 4 league matches, a depressing statistic. Vilafranquense have conceded 6 from these games.
Sanjoanense form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Ferreira de Aves and Canelas 2010 in order to reach 3rd Round of Taça De Portugal. Last season their Taça De Portugal adventure ended in the 4th round.Before that, Sanjoanense secured a home win against Lusitania FC Lourosa with the score 2-1.
Drawing 3-3 against Espinho after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager S. Pereira Machado needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Sanjoanense, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
