The last two meetings ended 1-1 and 0-0, even though before that Farense had beaten Penafiel three times in four matches. This time the two sides come in sitting 3rd and 4th, just a point apart, and both are unbeaten in the league for several games. Farense have won four in a row, have been scoring for fun in their last two games, and have not conceded at home at all this season. Penafiel, meanwhile, have lost two in a row, but both were narrow defeats, 1-2 and 0-1, results that came down to fine margins rather than a gulf in class. This game looks likely to be a trading of blows in which Farense see more of the ball, but Penafiel have a counter-attacking game that will keep the hosts on their guard throughout. The first thing to watch after kick-off is how deep Penafiel set up, and whether Farense can break down that compact defence quickly.
