Vítor Campelos will have a full squad to pick from on Sunday. Frelih and Paulo Vitor will battle for a starting spot in goal. The former is the likeliest to start. New signing Sandro Cruz could actually get the nod over João Correia at right-back. With Jorge Fernandes injured, André Amaro and Mumin will likely start at the heart of the defence. Tomás Handel is also sidelined, but he was not expected to start anyway. Bruno Duarte might lead the line if Moreno decides to rest André Silva.
GD Chaves are back in the top flight after a couple of seasons after remarkably surpassing Moreirense FC in the playoffs. There are still adjustments to be made until the end of the month regarding new signings, but they should be confident heading into their season opener. Vitória SC were the first Portuguese team in action this season and they've already played three matches in the UEFA Conference League qualifying round. The 'Vimaranenses' lost to Hajduk Split in midweek, which might have an impact on Sunday. However, having a better team, they might be able to, at least, avoid returning to Guimarães empty handed. A draw is on the cards. 1:1
