Estoril - Moreirense

Forward Andre Lacximicant remains the focal point for Estoril as they look to arrest a difficult run of form during this matchday 9 fixture on 25 October 2026. The expected XI, anchored by goalkeeper Joel Robles and midfield presence Joao Carvalho, enters the contest at Antonio Coimbra da Mota following a challenging period that included a narrow defeat to Academico Viseu and a draw against Salgueiros in the Taca de Portugal. Finding the back of the net has proven a persistent struggle for the hosts, who have been unable to secure a league victory in their recent outings.

Moreirense arrive with their own ambitions, aiming to bounce back after a tight cup exit against AVS Futebol SAD. With Leonardo Vonic and Tiago Andrade expected to lead the attack, the visitors will look to replicate the defensive resilience they showed during their draw with Vitoria de Guimaraes. Given the high frequency of draws in recent head-to-head meetings, including a 3-3 thriller in December 2025, this encounter promises to be a tactical battle where midfield control from Guilherme Liberato and Nile John could prove decisive.
