Can Benfica also intercept FC Porto?

What a disappointing season for Benfica Lisbon. After the runner-up in the previous year, the legendary coach Jorge Jesus was brought back to the command bridge before the season started and wanted to win the 38th championship title - which is now very likely to go to city rival Sporting, the current coach's ex-club. In the table they are in third place after 30 match days. 20 wins and 6 draws have been made so far - the goal difference is 58:21.

Especially at the turn of the year they made a few slips - a series with only one win in seven games let the record champions fall significantly behind in the table. Most recently it went very well again with 9 wins in 10 league games. The 1: 2 at home against Gil Vicente is still extremely painful.

Because you have to win against FC Porto and also hope for another slip of the "Dragaos". Against the blue-whites, the capital city builds again on top striker Haris Seferovic, who already holds 18 goals this season and offers himself for a goal scorer bet.

Can Porto put pressure on Sporting again?

The port city players from the north are already 6 points behind Sporting Lisbon four games before the end of the season. The league leaders would have to afford several slip-ups to gamble away the title. But should it happen, the blue-whites want to be there. So a win against Benfica is essential to secure the fixed place for the Champions League.

FC Porto has won 21 of its 30 season games so far. They drew 7 times - a little too often to endanger the still unbeaten Sporting. The question will be how much risk FC Porto will take against Benfica. We tend to expect a few goals - for the tip "under 2.5 goals” the odds are around 1.75.

Free soccer tips

The northern Portuguese are particularly strong on the offensive. No team has scored more often in the league. With 61 goals you get an average of more than 2 goals per game. They have been unbeaten in the league since October 30, 2020. Since then there have been 18 wins and 6 draws.

Betting tip and forecast

For Benfica Lisbon it is the last chance to be dangerous for FC Porto. The team of coaching legend Jorge Jesus absolutely needs 3 points to maybe get the second place. However, FC Porto recently performed very confidently and will throw everything into the balance against their arch rivals in order to expand the series of 5 unbeaten games against the capital city. We assume that the "Dragaos" will also succeed. We take a little less risk and rely on "double the chance”. Our suggestion: Double chance X / 2. Alternatively, we recommend the tip "less than 2.5 goals”.
