Preview

Arouca had goalkeeper Ignacio de Arruabarrena to thank last weekend as his heroics in between the sticks helped protect a goalless draw against Estoril. Vasco Seabra's side are fifth in the standings heading into gameweek six with 10 points taken from a possible 15.

Santa Clara have been even more convincing in Liga Portugal this season, taking 11 points from an unbeaten start to the campaign through five games. Sunday's visitors hammered Rio Ave 4-0 on home turf last weekend in an eye-catching result.
