Benfica Preview – Can Benfica close gap?
Benfica currently occupy 3rd place in the Liga Portugal and are four points adrift of the top two Champions League spots but the hosts have a great opportunity to at least close the gap on 2nd placed Sporting CP as they play host to lowly Vizela on Friday night.
Benfica have won four out of their last five games overall but the odds on a home win here are understandably thin, so the goals market looks the best option here; 3 goals or more have been scored in Benfica’s last six games while eight of Benfica’s 12 home games have seen 3+ goals scored.
Vizela Preview – Can Vizela grab unlikely result?
Vizela sit just three points above the relegation play-off spot in the Liga Portugal and their fortunes have dwindled in recent weeks with the visitors failing to win any of their last five games, suffering three defeats in the process.
The odds are firmly stacked against a win for Vizela on Friday night but again, the goals market appeals here as five of Vizela’s last seven games have seen 3 goals or more scored while on the road, nine of Vizela’s 12 away games have also seen 3 goals or more.
