Oliveirense (home)
- Feirense and UD Oliveirense are level on 18 points apiece after 16 games of the Liga Segunda 2025-2026 campaign, sitting in 14th and 15th place respectively.
- Oliveirense are looking to consolidate after promotion and Feirense need to get a little run going to get under the radar of the bigger clubs that are expected to go up under new coach Ricardo Costa.
- Oliveirense also have a 4-2-3-1 system that can be morphed into a 4-3-3 when required, but coach Jorge Pinto is very disciplined in his rotations and ensures the structure remains compact and the ball possession tactics are in place to avoid any dangerous transitions.
Feirense (away)
- His approach has brought a level of defensive organisation and patience in transition to the team, while they do not have the creative midfielders or wingers to play as openly as some other teams.

- The visitors have been the steadier of the two in recent weeks, winning one, tying three and losing one of their last five, while Oliveirense have two wins and three defeats in their last five.
Head-to-Head
The last two meetings have been shared, with Feirense winning the last head-to-head 3-1 at home in Liga Segunda 2024/2025, but failing to win in their previous three away trips to Oliveirense.
