In this 10th week match, on Sat Oct 22nd, Famalicão will host Paços de Ferreira at Estádio Municipal 22 De Junho in a clash of these two evenly matched Primeira Liga teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, which is great football weather. 15th placed Famalicão is fresh off their 1-4 loss against Arouca. Santiago Colombatto struck first for Famalicão in the 21st minute, but Watshini Bukia got the equalizer for Arouca in the 30th minute Finally they completed the comback in the 52nd minute on a goal by Morlaye Sylla to cap off a wild match. Famalicão looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 8 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Paços de Ferreira recorded a 0-1 loss against Vitória SC. Nelson Conceicao da Luz scored the first goal for Vitória SC in the 9th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Paços de Ferreira was frustrated by Vitória SC’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Vitória SC ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 7 of their last 10.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Paços de Ferreira won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Paços de Ferreira’s most prolific scorer has been Adrián Butzke. The Spanish attacker has netted two goals over the last 5 matches. Gustavo Assunção and Zaydou Youssouf are the top scorers for Famalicão in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
