GIL Vicente – Vitória SC

Gil Vicente host a struggling Vitória SC in what promises to be a pivotal clash in the second tier. Sitting sixth with 14 points from four wins, two draws and two defeats, the home side have already out‑scored opponents 8‑6 and will be keen to cement a top‑four push. Vitória, languishing in 15th place with just five points from one win, two draws and five losses and a goal deficit of 5‑10, will need a turnaround to steer clear of the relegation zone. The stark contrast in form and goal difference sets the stage for a classic battle between a promotion‑aspiring outfit and a team fighting for survival.
