Gil Vicente, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 4-2 away defeat by Chaves will have left the Gil Vicente squad feeling a little deflated. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Chaves, who had 15 shots on goal with 8 on target.
Whilst manager Vítor Campelos will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 13 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have had an excellent run of form at Estádio Cidade de Barcelos recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, Maxime Dominguez will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Gil Vicente's last 6 league games.
SC Braga, Recent FormHaving secured a 2-1 home win against Rio Ave in their latest league match, SC Braga will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. They achieved 72% possession in that match and had 34 strikes at goal, with 9 hitting the target, up against Rio Ave's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
With 15 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, their manager Artur Jorge will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 10 goals in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 11 games in a row.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Simon Banza is on a hot scoring streak recently having scored in each of SC Braga's last league game.
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 1-0 win for SC Braga.
From their past 5 away matches in the league against Gil Vicente, Os Arcebispos have managed to find the net with at least 1 goal and will be aiming to keep that streak going. Ahead of this match, Gil Vicente won't like the look of their goal stats, having failed to secure a goal in their last 2 meetings against Os Arcebispos. Gilistas have struggled to break down the SC Braga defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams at Estádio Cidade de Barcelos, SC Braga has taken all 3 points and has not lost away to Gil Vicente in 5 games.
With only Ali Alipour (Unknown) and Stanislav Kritsyuk (Unknown) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Vítor Campelos will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
SC Braga manager Artur Jorge has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
