In this stadium, the history of direct confrontations is favorable to the away team, which records 2 wins and 1 loss in the last 3 matches.

The goals of the match were scored by Jorge Fellipe (5 ‘) and Baldé (22’), for the Desportivo Aves, and Pedro Tiba (21 ‘), William (89’) and Matheus Pereira (90 ‘), for Chaves. In this game the home factor may be decisive, since both teams present considerable differences in the results achieved at home and as a visitor.

Desportivo Aves:

The home team reaches this stage of the Taça de Portugal (8th Finals) after having played previous heats with: Cova Piedade and Sacavenense. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 11 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 21 suffered. The team comes to this match after a draw at home with Vitória Guimarães by (1-1). In the last 10 home matches for all competitions,Desportivo Aves won 4, tied 2 and lost 4. Their defense has not been very strong, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored regularly, since he scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.

Aves arrives motivated to this game, after having achieved a 1-1 draw at the reception of Vitória de Guimarães, in a match for the Portuguese championship: Mama Baldé scored the only goal of the team. In the last match for the Portuguese Cup, the home team won at Cova Piedade, by 0-3. In this home game, coach José Mota should play in the usual 4-2-3-1, privileging the defensive organization and the direct passes for the attack. We emphasize that the locals have presented some weaknesses in the defensive organization and defensive set pieces. For this game, the Aves coach will not be able to count on Diego Galo and Rubén Oliveira, both with physical problems.

Chaves:

Until reaching this stage of the Taça de Portugal (8th Finals), the visiting team eliminated: Santa Clara, Pedras Salgadas, Gil Vicente and Vinhais. This is a team that, oddly enough, was better outside than at home, as in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. The team comes to this match after a home defeat with Moreirense by (1-2). In the last 4 away matches for Taça de Portugal, el Chaves won 4.

For this competition, record a sequence of 4 victories in the last matches. They have not been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 3 of the last 4 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 4 matches for this competition.

Chaves comes to this game with a defeat at home against Moreirense, 1-2, thus registering the third consecutive defeat in the Portuguese championship. Interestingly, his last triumph was precisely in the Portuguese Cup, when he won against Santa Clara by 1-2. In this game away from home, coach Tiago Fernandes must act in the usual tactical design, that is, in 4-4-2, benefiting the maintenance of possession of the ball and the organized attacks: Stephen Eustaquio is the great responsible for creating and organize the offensive process. Apparently, the coach does not have Maras, João Teixeira, Nuno André Coelho and Lionn, all with physical problems.
