On Sunday, December 8, Olhanense welcome Rio Ave to the Algarve Stadium, kick-off 4pm.
Rio Ave constantly play better away from home having lost only once on their travels and that was at Benfica last weekend.
Good news for manager Paulo Alves is that captain Rui Duarte and midfielder Pele have recovered from injury.
The following Sunday (December 15) football fans in the Algarve are in for a pre-Christmas treat as Lisbon giants Benfica are the opponents. Kick-off is 6.15pm and fans are advised to purchase their tickets in advance from the José Arcanjo Stadium Office, Olhão (behinds McDonalds on the EN125). The ticket office will be open from 10am to 5.30pm (closed 12.30 to 2.00pm) from Monday to Friday.
