Match preview
Cinfães host Leixoes in the Round of 128 of the Taça de Portugal, with both sides looking to make progress in the national cup competition. Cinfães enter the fixture following a narrow 1-0 away defeat against Salgueiros, though their home form in recent weeks has been steady, remaining unbeaten across their last four matches on home soil.
Leixoes travel into this knockout tie carrying strong momentum, having gone unbeaten in their last three outings in all competitions. Their recent away performances have been particularly resilient, registering a 2-0 victory against Portimonense followed by a goalless draw at Torreense without conceding a single goal across those two trips.
With knockout football bringing added caution and Leixoes demonstrating defensive stability on the road, the visitors appear well positioned to avoid defeat in normal time in a tightly contested cup tie.
