Primeira Liga
With their 21 wins out of 24 matches played, Porto continue to lead convincingly in the Portuguese championship. However, this weekend they face one of their toughest tests of the season – an away match against their big rivals Benfica.
Tight direct confrontationsEarlier in the season, the two teams failed to score even a goal in their league match against each other, and subsequently, Porto eliminated Benfica from the cup tournament after a narrow 1-0 victory. This shows how evenly matched and cautious the clashes between these two teams usually are.
Prediction: Under 2.5 goalsBenfica may have ended their participation in the Champions League, but they continue to perform strongly in the league and after 24 matches played, they still have no losses. All of this suggests a very competitive match with few clear goal-scoring opportunities, so I expect the match to remain under the line of 2.5 goals.
