Estoril Praia will entertain Sporting Lisbon at the Antonio Coimbra da Mota in the Primeira Liga on Saturday. The hosts have won just one of their six league games, while the capital club have five wins to their name.
Canarinhos had won their league meeting against AVS in their first game back after the international break, but failed to build on that form and suffered a 2-0 away loss to Gil Vicente last week.
The visitors extended their winning streak in all competitions to three games last week, recording a 3-0 home triumph over Moreirense. Interestingly, all three goals were scored after the 76th minute. Luis Suárez and Pedro Gonçalves scored from the penalty spot while Fotis Ioannidis opened his goalscoring account for the club in stoppage time.
