Farense head into the contest positioned 10th in the Segunda Liga standings, while Torreense arrive sitting 14th. Farense have been picking up results at a respectable clip, DLDWW over their last five with a season win rate of 40%. Torreense are in the midst of a slump, DWLDD over their last five and a paltry win rate of 16.67% summing up their struggles.

Dusan Vlahovic followed up his hat-trick on Monday by completing the comeback to leave Fenerbahce four points behind Galatasaray, who snatched a late winner at Basaksehir on Friday.
The tactical battle could prove decisive. Farense may lean on their home advantage to dictate the tempo, but Torreense have shown they can be dangerous when allowed to play on their own terms. Man Utd are pushing higher and working harder to press and counter-press the opposition, especially to win the ball back quickly after a loss of possession.

With the standings tight and form on the line, this is a fixture neither side will want to lose. Premier League chief executive Richard Masters says a verdict on the alleged charges against Manchester City "has taken longer than expected".
