**Beira-Mar are drawing everything; Belenenses just won five straight.** This Taça de Portugal clash pits a side stuck in stalemate mode against a team absolutely rolling 🔥
Beira-Mar's last five reads like a highlights reel of 1-1s and 2-2s — zero wins, four draws, one loss. Meanwhile, Belenenses have reeled off five wins on the bounce, most recently dismantling Lusitano 2-1 away. The momentum disparity is wild here.
Key storylines:
- **Belenenses' attacking form** has been relentless; they've scored multiple goals in four of their last five, while Beira-Mar's backline led by **D. Almeida** and **G. Almeida** can't seem to keep anyone out
- **Beira-Mar's inability to win** extends into this tournament — they're winless in five and will lean heavily on **Marcelinho** and **Didi** to find a breakthrough
- **Head-to-head is split**, but Belenenses' current hot streak suggests they've got the edge in this rematch
Expected lineups:
- **SC Beira-Mar**: D. Almeida, F. Leal, E. Souza, A. Mendy, Marcelinho, D. O. Souza
- **C.F. Os Belenenses**: G. Oliveira, D. Monteiro, N. Tomás, T. Morgado, Bruninho, C. Alfandega
Prediction:
**Belenenses 2-1 Beira-Mar**. Five wins in a row beats four draws any day of the week.
