Estrela – Maritimo

The visitors sit just four places lower in tenth place, having collected seven points from two victories, a draw and two defeats, and carry a negative 6‑8 goal balance. The clash pits a side that has yet to taste defeat this season against a Maritimo outfit eager to claw back into the mid‑table scramble. With both teams possessing similar records against the opposition this term, the match could easily be decided by a single moment of quality or a lapse in concentration.
