This Taça De Portugal cup tie is a meeting between two teams from different league levels, and this match is Fátima's chance to measure themselves against a team from a higher league, after they just came through the previous round with a 4-1 win in the same competition. Fátima still haven't won a league game in their last three matches, but when it comes to cup games they score heavily. Their attack has its moments, but the defence is the part that has kept costing them defeats. Academico Viseu, meanwhile, are in hot form, on a winning run in the Portugal 1 league and kept a clean sheet in their 2-0 win; they don't score much but they don't concede much either. This game will likely see Academico Viseu dominate possession and push forward, while Fátima must defend tightly and wait for the chance to counter. The first thing to watch is how long Fátima can hold up against the visitors' sustained attacking before conceding the first goal.
