Player to watch: Yanis Begraoui
Yanis Begraoui scored Estoril's only goal in their 2-1 defeat against Porto last weekend. The Moroccan forward has put in some impressive performances in recent weeks, scoring five times and providing an assist in his last eight appearances. Begraoui will look to score in back-to-back games for the first time in four weeks.
