Betting on Portimonense Sporting Clube
The Black and White has had an average season, but luckily this team is already far from any possibility of relegation. It comes into this match in 13th place with 34 points, eleven points away from the bottom teams, and with only three games left to play.
Its last game was a draw away from home against Casa Pia with a score of 1-1. The match seemed lost until Bryan Róchez, who came on as a substitute, scored in the fifth minute of stoppage time, securing the fourth draw of the campaign.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Kosuke Nakamura; Ji-su Park, Alemao, Pedrao; Mauricio, Carlinhos, Fahd Moufi, Filipe Relvas; Rui Gomes, Yony Gonzalez; Welinton Junior.
Betting on Sport Lisboa e Benfica
This is a crucial game for the competition’s leader, who enters this match with 80 points, four points ahead of Porto, its closest rival. With three consecutive wins, Benfica remains in first place in pursuit of its 38th league title.
In the previous match, Benfica struggled to beat Braga by the minimum score. In fact, it found the winning goal in the 67th minute scored by Rafa, and assisted by David Neres, who is one of the standout players with seven assists so far this season.
In addition to being the leader, this club has the best goal difference in the competition with 72 goals scored and only 17 conceded, giving it a differential of +55.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Odysseas Vlachodimos; Fredrik Aursnes, Morato, António Silva, Alejandro Grimaldo; Joao Neves, Chiquinho; Joao Mario, David Neres, Rafa; Goncalo Ramos.
JefeBet Prediction
It could be a tricky outing for the current leader, Benfica, as it faces a squad that has been saved from any chance of relegation, meaning it is free from any complications in the final stretch of the tournament. Moreover, in recent weeks, the team from the Portuguese capital has struggled to convert goals.
Nevertheless, the visiting team is clearly the favorite, having maintained the best performance in this tournament, even resisting Porto’s push, who is only four points behind in the title race. At JefeBet, we believe that Benfica will win, although with some difficulties.
Prediction: Benfica Moneyline (POR 1-2 BEN)
