Moreirense FC claimed a remarkable result from their trip to the Estádio da Luz as they held SL Benfica to a 1-1 draw. They're yet to lose since Sá Pinto took over as the new head coach, but that wasn't enough to move them into a comfortable position in the league table. CD Santa Clara wasted a two-goal lead and ended up dropping a couple of points against CD Tondela last time out. After a great first half, Mário Silva's men lost the focus they needed to hold the lead and will have to improve in that regard if they want to get at least point from their trip to Moreira de Cónegos. Both teams have new coaches, but only the hosts took advantage of the effects of new manager bounce. They're expected to extend their unbeaten run on Saturday. 2:1
Lazar Rosic should return to the heart of the defence as Artur Jorge is suspended due to an accumulation of bookings. Fábio Pacheco will also miss out after reaching a milestone of bookings, which will pave the way for Camará to start in the middle of the park. Other than that, Sá Pinto should name the same starting XI that held SL Benfica to a draw last time out. Other than Costinha, Mário Silva will have a full squad to pick from. Kyosuke Tagawa was signed in midweek, but he's not expected to start. Boateng and João Afonso will be in competition to be paired with Villanueva at the heart of the defence.
Santa Clara have lost 12 of their last 15 away matches (Liga NOS). There have been over 2.5 goals scored in 8 of Santa Clara's last 9 games (Liga NOS). Santa Clara have conceded at least 2 goals in 8 of their last 10 matches (Liga NOS). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 5 of Moreirense's last 6 games (Liga NOS).
