After the break, season will continue in Portugal. Aves is a top candidate for the second league relegation, only 13 points in the bag means 9 points behind the safe zone and with 3 losses before the break means the confidence level is in the bottom of glass. Belenenses, who are not allowed to play their home games in their own stadium, has scored twice as many points and is therefore in 13th place in the lower half of the table. 10 points ahead of the first relegation place. In the first leg it was almost traditionally rich in goals.

Hapoel Acre is going to face Hapoel Katamon. The hosts lost the friendly match against Hapoel Haifa 1:2 but it wasn't the worst match. They played not bad and today they should prove a good form. However, they will play against a team that is fighting for top 3. Katamon won twice against Acre on away in the previous years. They beat them twice 3:0 and today I expect them to win for the third time. Katamon won 7 of 14 matches on away in this season. I don't think that Katamon will struggle hard against a team like Acre. My bet is Katamon to win
