Portimonense are placed at 17th place in the table and will be searching for three points while hosting ninth-placed Gil Vicente.
With their legs set to relegation this season, Portimonense will be a long way from making the most of their ground advantage in the league match with Gil Vicente at Portimao.
Portimonense is winless for the last 13 matches across every single significant competition in their schedule. Their last experience in the league was a 3-1 loss headed straight toward any semblance of Braga.
With only one loss inside their earlier five matches in the campaign, Gil Vicente will visit in the wake of sharing the spoils against Santa Clara at home with a 1-1 scoreline in the last experience.
The home side are in a difficult relegation situation and six points from security. It’s been a hopeless season for Portimonense with only two league wins in 24 matches. Only 16 goals have been scored by them, the most noticeably awful scoring record in the Primeira League.
Home form has seen one of those successes however fans have just observed them score eight goals. Just 12 conceded however in 11 games and just four sides have yielded less. They have just lost one of their last six home games yet five have been drawn. Valuable points yet they have to get a few successes if wanting to evade relegation and just two goals have been scored in those six fixtures.. 15 of their 24 league games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them and 8 out of 11 at home.
Portimonense come back to activity sitting in the relegation zone having recently won just two of their 24 matches played so far this season however they are the draw masters the Primeira having tied a league-high 10 matches up until now.
They will be charmed to play this opening match at home having lost only one of their last seven league matches even though they might be compelled to play somewhat more adventurously as they have to begin winning matches to close the gap to Pacos de Ferreira above them.
As of late designated coach Paul Sergio has had additional time with his players and will like to move a wonderful survival offer however he will be without Pedro Sa and Bruno Costa who are both suspended for this conflict with Gil Vicente.
Gil Vicente are ninth yet haven’t got a lot to play for. They are 12 points away from the final Europa League qualifying position however 14 over the relegation zone. They will be happy to play again after so long uninvolved. Gil Vicente have won seven of their 24 league games with nine drawn and eight lost. Away form isn’t so extraordinary however with just three triumphs and six defeats. Simply the ten away league goals scored and 16 yielded in 12 games however the last two have both been won.
Gil Vicente were appreciating some strong form before the break having gotten eight points from their past five games with their only defeat being a narrow 0-1 home loss to Benfica and they will be quick to expand on that and close the gap on the teams above them.
They were enduring various injuries preceding the break yet just about a quarter of a year without a game has empowered a few of their players to return to full fitness so will give them more options to look over.
They are anyway without winger Lourency through suspension alongside defender Fernando Fonseca who has been compelled to have surgery and could miss the rest of the season with the duo being their only affirmed absentees.
The host has recorded four of the last five successes. Just one of their last five matches has finished in a draw.

Desperate occasions for Portimonense who sit route adrift of safety and essentially need to begin winning matches on the off chance that they are to get any opportunity of getting the teams above them. That has all the earmarks of being a troublesome task when they have just won two of their 24 matches so far yet new coach Paulo Sergio will seek after a response from his men.
They face a strong Gil Vicente side who are hard to beat under the most favorable circumstances and were in reasonable form preceding the break. With little firepower on either side however and the danger of a low tempo game in this first game back, a low scoring stalemate could well be on the cards.
There is no territory for doubt about the dip in form of either side in the league. Nonetheless, out of the two sides, Gil Vicente has a slight edge over the host team in their overall record in the challenge.
It must be noticed that the host is trailing behind the Gillistas by 14 points. Paulo Sergio and his men have recorded just 2 successes from their 24 appearances up until this point.
To make things worse, the Roosters have recorded three successes in their last five visits to Portimao over every single major competition.
The home side are in a difficult situation at the foot of the Portuguese Primeira League. Only two league wins all season and a particular absence of goals being scored. On the off chance that the successes don’t come soon, at that point they won’t be in this league next season. Gil Vicente don’t have a lot to play for and battle to score goals, particularly on their travels.
