GD Estoril-Praia made a promising start against Vitória SC, but ended up losing 3-1. They're facing their worst run of the season as they've lost four successive matches, which has seen them drop out of the European spots. They've been lacking the offensive dynamic they showed in the first half of the season. FC Arouca lost to SL Benfica, but they were able to put up a good fight in a fairly comprehensive defeat. Armando Evangelista's men are facing a six-match winless run, but the decent display against a title contender will be a boost. On top of that, the visitors have had more time to prepare for this match, which will favour their chances of getting something from their trip to Estoril, despite their opponents' quality. A draw is on the cards. 1:1
