MATCH ANALYSIS
Belenenses finally broke the shackles by scoring their first league goals of the season in Sunday's 3-1 win at Maritimo, although they have only conceded four times in five games including two 0-0 draws. Rio Ave, who lost 4-2 at home to Tondela at the weekend, may struggle to break them down.
