The Primeira Liga match between Estrela Amadora and Estoril will take place at Estadio Jose Gomes on Saturday at 12:45 am IST.
Estrela Amadora is set to host Estoril Praia on Friday. Estrela Amadora, the home team, is in search of their first points this season after achieving promotion to the top division. Meanwhile, their opponents, Estoril Praia, secured their first win of the campaign in their previous match after facing a defeat in their opening game. After winning against Maritimo in the promotion playoff in Portugal’s second-tier league last season, Estrela Amadora made their debut in the Primeira Liga this term, aiming to establish themselves in the top tier under the guidance of Sergio Vieira.
Despite their ambitions, the beginning of the season hasn’t been ideal for Estrela Amadora. They are yet to secure any points from their initial two matches. Despite their winless start, Estrela Amadora can find positives in their performance against Benfica and their overall resolute display. Looking ahead, they aim to build up on this positivity into a favorable result on Friday as they strive to earn their first three points of the season at home.
Their opponents, Estoril Praia, entered their third consecutive top-flight season with the goal of improving upon their 14th-place finish from the previous year. Following their quick recovery from their opening-day defeat and their impressive cup performances, Estoril Praia will approach the upcoming match against the newly-promoted Estrela Amadora with confidence, aiming to secure another three points and continue their positive momentum.
