Vianense have been involved in open, high-scoring matches throughout recent weeks. Each of their last five competitive fixtures has produced at least three total goals, including scorelines of 3-3 with Paredes, 3-1 against Estrela Calheta, 2-1 against Varzim, 2-2 with Pacos Ferreira, and an 8-0 cup win over Minas de Argozelo. While they have averaged 5.5 goals scored per match in the Taca de Portugal, they have also conceded in four of their last five outings. Leixoes have shown sharp finishing of their own, hitting four goals at Cinfaes in the previous round and three against Amarante. The combination of Vianense's porous defense and both teams' potent attacks points toward an encounter featuring three or more goals.

Match preview
Vianense host Leixoes in the Round of 64 of the Taca de Portugal, with both clubs having displayed considerable attacking output in the competition so far. Vianense come into this fixture on an unbeaten five-match sequence across all competitions, most recently sharing six goals in a 3-3 home draw against Paredes.
Leixoes arrive following a 2-1 home defeat against FC Porto B, but their earlier cup tie saw them deliver an emphatic 4-0 away win against Cinfaes. That victory highlighted their ability to control matches on the road against cup opposition.
