Gil Vicente: form and statistics

Gil Vicente are still not safe from the relegation battle this season, but they defeated Nacional 3-0 in their recent game to show that they are ready to keep their place ahead of next season. However, they have managed just two wins in their last 13 games and have lost their last seven home games. They sit 14th on the table with 29 points in 30 games, having scored 30 goals and conceded 43. They are just five points off the relegation zone with 12 points still left to fight for in the season. Roosters will still face Sporting, Arouca, and Rio Ave in their remaining game of the season. So, for them to keep their minds at rest, they need to win at least two of their remaining four games.

Gil Vicente: Lineup

César Peixoto will most likely field the same starting eleven he used against Nacional, with Sphephelo Sithole and Bermejo not yet nearing a return. The gaffer will stick with the 4-2-3-1 formation with Jorge Aguirre expected to lead the attack.

Farense: Form and statistics

Farense suffered a 1-0 loss to Boavista in their last game. They are winless in 15 of their last 16 games. Their form away from home has not been fair, as they remain unbeaten in nine of their last eleven games. Lions of Faro sit bottom of the table with 21 points in 30 games, having scored 20 goals and conceded 41. They can still escape relegation if they win their remaining games of the season, as they are five points down from the danger zone. The team will still face Famalicao, Guimaraes, and Santa Clara in their remaining games of the season.

Farense: Lineup

Tozé has no fresh injury concern ahead of this match, but Marco Moreno and Elves Balde are still not available for selection. Kaique Pereira will keep his place as the keeper, with Rui Costa and Tomane expected to lead the attack in a 4-4-2 formation.

Goalkeeper – Kaique Pereira

Defenders – Pastor, Claudio Falcão, Tomas Ribeiro, Paulo Victor
