On Tue Dec 28th, in week 16, Moreirense and Estoril will play a match in Moreira de Cónegos in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched Primeira Liga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 11 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. Moreirense sits at 17th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-1 loss against Boavista. Yanis Hamache scored the first goal for Boavista in the 34th minute, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, Moreirense was frustrated by Boavista’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Boavista ended the match with the shutout victory. Moreirense looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 5th placed Estoril, recorded a 2-2 draw against Famalicão. Cardoso Vital scored the first goal for Famalicão on an own goal in the 42nd minute, then Rui Fonte tied it up for Estoril in the 45th minute on a feed from Andre Filipe Russo Franco . Estoril is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season.
