Prediction: 1-1
Santa Clara
Vizela and Santa Clara square off against each other at Estadio do Vizela in what is expected to be a close Primeira Liga game. Vizela have drawn each of their previous four league fixtures, and they are likely to adopt yet another cautious approach against Santa Clara. Both Kiko and Cassiano are pushing for a start, while Silva and Zagbayou are likely to miss the game with injuries.
The visitors, on the other hand, did well to hold Braga to a 1-1 draw in their last league match. Santa Clara, though, are not regarded as good travelers, which is probably the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on draw. Costinha remains in the recovery room, but he should be the only absentee in the away team. You should bear in mind that the two teams played out a goalless draw in each of their previous two meetings in all competitions.
Highlighted Player (Fabio Cardoso):
Fabio Cardoso is a Portuguese defender who was born in Agueda (Portugal) on April 19, 1994. Cardoso started his youth career at his hometown club Agueda, but in 2008 he continued his development at Benfica. After scoring three goals in 55 appearances for Benfica B, he spent the 2015/2016 season on loan at Pacos Ferreira.
In the summer of 2017, he signed a four-year deal with Vitoria Setubal, but he spent only one season at Estadio do Bonfim. Cardoso joined Scottish club Glasgow Rangers in June 2017, signing a three-year contract with the club for a fee of around £1.3 million.
The Portuguese defender, though, made no more than 12 appearances for the Gers, joining Santa Clara in the summer of 2018. Fabio Cardoso has four caps with the Portugal U20 team, but he has yet to earn a call-up for the senior team. His primary position is a centre-back, but he is often used as a left-back. His preferred foot is right.
