Tondela comes unmotivated for this match after an away home defeat, by 2-1, against Estoril. The home team is going through a terrible moment, once that shows in every matches many difficulties in both processes. Murillo is the most capable player to unbalance in attack, while his best feature is the dribble and speed. Against a superior opponent, it’s foreseeable that Tondela will keep their lines low, in order to address their defensive problems. Nathan Junior, with six goals scored, is the best Tondela scorer, and thus it’s possible to infer the difficulty of the home team to create and finalize danger situations. Lucas Souza won’t be able to contribute to his team because he is suspended after accumulating ten yellow cards.

Confirmed Lineup: Zubikarai, Tikito, Junior Oto'o Zue, Bruno Nascimento, Nuno Santos, Hélder Tavares, Bruno Monteiro, Karl, Jhon Murillo, Nathan Junior, Romario Baldé.
