However, Estrela failed to defeat Nacional as they were undone with a second-half goal to stay six points behind Farense with just one game left.
Muscat, who has 57 international caps for Malta, joined Farense from Casa Pia with whom he had also won promotion to the first-tier last season.
At Farense, Muscat played 24 games in all competitions while finding the net on four occasions including three times in the league – vs Moreirense (3-1), vs Oliveirense (2-1) and Feirense (2-1).
Farense return to the top-flight after dropping into the second-tier in the 2021/2022 season. They wrap up this season’s campaign with a home game against Tondela, next season.
