Betting on Benfica
Benfica played a thrilling match against Sporting Lisbon in the previous matchday of the competition, drawing by a score of 2-2 that delayed their coronation. The leader of the tournament registers 84 points, two points behind their closest rival, Porto.
It seems that they have everything they need to lift the trophy this weekend, not only because they will face one of the weakest clubs in the championship, but also because it will be on their home stadium, a stage in which it has won 14 of the 16 meetings held in their first division history , losing only one of them so far.
In addition, they have been successful in the last two matches against this opponent at the Estadio Da Luz, scoring a total of four goals and conceding two.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Odysseas Vlachodimos; Fredrik Aursnes, Antonio Silva, Nicolas Otamendi, Alejandro Grimaldo; Joao Neves, Chiquinho; Joao Mario, Rafa Silva, David Neres; Gonçalo Ramos.
Betting on Santa Clara
Santa Clara has no chance of staying in the category, which seems to have made them relax in the competition, or at least that is what their results show. In fact, they come into this new match on the back of a 1-0 win over Portimonense.
This match was the third unbeaten game in the five most recent ones, results that would not have gone amiss in a stretch of the season where they could have changed their situation and moved out of the bottom of the standings.
Eight consecutive away games have been lost, a record that makes it seem impossible to pull off an upset this Saturday.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Gabriel Batista; Pierre Sagna, Ygor Nogueira, Italo, Matheus Nunes; Bruno Jordao, Adriano Firmino; Andrezinho, Bruno Almeida, Gabriel Silva; Matheus Babi.
JefeBet Prediction
Porto will be looking at this matchup with a sidelong glance, which could crown them champions if Santa Clara manages to make history, but this seems more than unlikely when they have only one win in the entire campaign away from home, losing in 13 of them.
Benfica stumbled last weekend, but they will not make the same mistake in front of their own fans and against a clearly inferior opponent in all aspects of the game.
Therefore, JefeBet expects the home team to win by a landslide and win its 38th title in Portugal’s top flight.
Prediction: Benfica Moneyline and Over (SLB 4-0 SAN).
