Gil Vicente is well established in the top 8 of the Portuguese elite by being 6th and even if he can, mathematically speaking, still believe in his chance of finishing top 4, a priori, it will not happen. Indeed, with 46 points, the local players are 10 points behind Braga, fourth, with 4 games remaining in the season, for a total of 12 points to be gained. As a bonus, Braga played yesterday, and in the event of a victory, the hopes of being European will have gone completely up in smoke. Coming back only to the case of Gil Vicente, he has only won one of his last eight matches in the league, it was against the red lantern AFS 3-0, for a record of 4 defeats against Estoril 3-1, Benfica 1-2, Santa Clara 1-0 and during the previous day against Guimaraes 0-1.

On the other side of the median, Casa Pia has been advancing with the same motivation for several weeks: collect as many points as possible to get out of this 16th place play-off. Problem, Casa Pia remains in 8 championship matches without contracting the slightest success, even losing 4 times against Famalicao 2-0, still without scoring at Estrela in a decisive match maintaining 4-0, on the Alverca turf 3-1 and last week, during a late day against Braga 0-1.
