Academico Viseu take on the visitors Estoril in the round 3 match of Portuguese League Cup. The match will be played on Thursday, November 1st at Estádio do Fontelo (Viseu).
Academico de Viseu are hardly known outside of they country. The "Viriaty" have more than a century of history, the team was founded in 1914. In 2005, however, there was a restart of the project. And for quite a long time the club stayed, if not in 4-5, then at the most in the 3rd division of the country. And only in 2013 it turned out to rise higher, to the Segunda. There the Academician holds on, sometimes seriously claiming a new upsurge, but without any final success. No less often than in the last draw, there were mediocre positions - in 2021/2022 they limited themselves to only 15th place. In this regard, now it turns out to add. At the moment, the representative of Viseu, taking into account the cups, has a series of 12 matches without defeat. And in the Segunda, it turns out to stay at a rather high, 6th position.

Estoril ends the football year not in the best shape. The Canaries were able to return to Primeira in 2021. And, for starters, we were able to finish in 9th position in the last draw - a very decent result, as for a beginner. In the new draw, it turned out to give a good start, and in the fall there was even a segment, with a 4-match streak without defeat in Primeira. It was only by the end of October that everything ended abruptly - Estoril lost not only to Benfica and Braga, but also, on November 14, to Santa Clara, and recorded only 1-1 away from Portimonense. As a result, the team has already rolled back to 12th place, that is, to the bottom of the current standings.
Estoril won all 3 last matches against Academico de Viseu. But in 2021, the "canaries" went up to Primeira, and then the teams no longer had any reason to meet again. Both Academico de Viseu and Estoril are not particularly motivated to fight in the cup. So it's hardly worth waiting for a spectacle - we bet on "less than 2.0 goals".
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 scored goals.
