**AD Marco 09 rolls in hot — three wins in their last five — while São João Ver are stuck in the mud.** This is a clash of trajectories in Liga 3 round 4. 🔥

Marco's recent form is crisp (1W 2D 2L for São João Ver tells the whole story), and the head-to-head leans their way too: two wins and two draws across the last four. São João Ver scraped past one draw at home but got battered 3-1 by Fafe just before this. They need to tighten up badly.

Key storylines:

- **AD Marco 09's midfield** — J. Gata, J. Guerrero, and B. Traoré have been running circles; can São João Ver's M. Camará and R. Valente keep pace?
- **E. Gabriel and Zequinha** need more service than they've been getting to trouble Marco's back line (R. Barrett and Chicao have been solid)
- **Pepê and K. Semedo** are Marco's forward punch; if they fire, São João Ver's defensive pairing of B. Morais and R. Bruno could buckle

Expected lineups:

- **SC São João Ver**: P. Virgínia, M. Vilela, B. Morais, R. Bruno, Ruca, M. Camará, R. Valente, T. Campas, N. Pereira, E. Gabriel, Zequinha
- **AD Marco 09**: Z. Couto, Erivaldo, R. Barrett, Chicao, J. Guerrero, J. Gata, F. Pacheco, B. Traoré, L. Garro, K. Semedo, Pepê

Prediction:

**AD Marco 09 1–0 SC São João Ver.** Marco have the edge in form and historical pedigree here; expect them to edge this one.
