Vitória de Guimarães is experiencing an offensive crisis during the early stages of the season. Following a scoreless draw against Casa Pia, coach Tiago Margarido expressed frustration over the team’s lack of clinical finishing despite dominating play and hitting the post twice. Statistical analysis reveals that while the team has recorded the highest volume of shots in the league—totaling 96 attempts—they have only scored three goals in five matches. This inefficiency has resulted in the club earning only four points from five rounds, a performance level comparable to their 2011/12 season. While the defense remains stable with only five goals conceded, the pressure to improve performance is being placed on the attacking trio of Alioune Ndoye, Patrick Ouotro, and Arnel Jakupovic. Ahead of the sixth round fixture against Académico de Viseu at Estádio Municipal do Fontelo, Margarido has emphasized the necessity of converting creative play into goals. Despite previous results, the coach expressed confidence in his squad and noted that recent training has focused on this issue. He characterized Académico de Viseu as an organized opponent with an effective counter-attacking ability.
