Chaves beat Ferreira in their recent game with 1:0 scoreline ending their five-match no-win streak which has lasted since the 18th of February. As for the team's performance in Taca de Portugal, Chaves started competition from 1/32 stage and knocked out Union Madeira 1:0, FC Porto 1:0, Torreense 3:2 and Sporting 1:0. It's quite an impressive road on which they knocked out two Portuguese notable clubs. At their own turf Chaves are practically invincible recording seven victories, eight draws and only one defeat against Benfica 0:2 on the 24th of September 2016 in 16 matches played this season. Chaves's unbeaten run at their own turf makes up 13 matches and a streak without any single goal conceded consists of six matches now and has been lasting since the 17th of January.

Guimaraes come up to the Taca de Portugal match with the seven-game unbeaten run recording four victories and three draws during that time. Last time “Os Conquistadores” were defeated on the 11th of February. In the Taca de Portugal Pedro Martins' team knocked out Santa Iria 2:1, Boavista 2:1, Vilafranquense 1:0, Covilha 1:0 and won its first-leg match vs. Chaves 2:0. These teams are definitely not that notable opponents as the ones of the hosting team, nevertheless, it is the result which is qualifying for the semifinal that matters. Guimaraes show gratifying results on the road recording 11 wins out of 18 matches with four draws and three defeats.
Guimaraes have never lost to Chaves in their history. The upcoming match is important for the both teams and I don't believe it will be a match with many goals combined by the opponents as like Chaves at their own turf, like Guimaraes on the road, lose rarely, therefore, it is quite possible that neither of the teams will score any goal.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 scored goals.
