Preview

Match preview

Salgueiros host Sousense in the 1/128-finals of the Taça de Portugal, with both sides seeking momentum in early-season knockout action. Salgueiros enter this fixture following three consecutive draws, including recent 1-1 scorelines against Sanjoanense and Camacha.

Sousense arrive on the back of consecutive defeats without finding the net, having lost 1-0 at home to Castro Daire and 2-0 away to Cinfães. Their recent scoring struggles present a significant challenge as they head on the road in cup competition.

Given the low-scoring trends evident in both squads' recent outings and Salgueiros' defensive resilience at home, a closely fought, low-margin encounter is probable.

Confidence

Salgueiros have avoided defeat in each of their last three matches, recording 1-1 draws against Sanjoanense and Camacha alongside a 0-0 draw with União Lamas. In contrast, Sousense have dropped their last two matches without scoring a goal. Backing Salgueiros on the Double Chance provides solid coverage across the most likely home-advantage outcomes, complemented by an expectation of under 2.5 total goals given both teams' recent low-scoring profiles.
