Benfica continue to chase the top spot in the Primeira Liga, but they face a tough away game against the stable Santa Clara. The hosts are in good form and are unbeaten in three consecutive matches, while the "eagles" alternate between strong and less convincing performances.
Santa Clara know how to make things difficult for their opponentsThe guests are the undisputed favorites in the match, but Santa Clara have shown that they can stand up to strong teams, especially at home. The team has seven wins in 11 home matches this season and rarely fail to score. In their last six matches, they scored in five of them, and against Benfica's inconsistent defense, they will have their chances.
Bet on both teams to scoreBenfica have a powerful attack and will be hard to stop, but they have also shown vulnerability in defense, conceding goals in five of their last six matches. Santa Clara play confidently in front of their own fans and it is entirely possible for them to find the net. Under these circumstances, both teams to score seems like a reasonable choice.
