Benfica - FC Porto Prediction, Picks and Tips
The Portuguese League Cup enters the decisive stage. It's the cup's nicknames, because in the beginning matches are played in four small groups. Their winners then play semi-finals with each other. In this way, two extremely titled clubs, namely Benfica and FC Porto, would fall into each other. It's an interesting match because both teams are at the top of the Portuguese NOS League. Benfica has recently released Rui Vitoria and is currently looking for his successor. Among the potential trainers, even Jose Mourinho was mentioned.
And the coach was dismissed because, according to the board, the club from Lisbon was losing too much to FC Porto who was leading in the competition. Interestingly, in October this theoretically weaker Benfika won in the clash of these teams. This is a difficult type, because in our opinion, Dragons and O Glorioso present a very similar level. It proves the tables, the last direct clashes of these teams and their previous matches in all competitions. For us, the most likely result here is a draw after 90 minutes of play and a decision at an additional time - rather in favor of FC Porto. Remember that the match is played in a neutral place of the game.
The last 5 meetings of these teams are 3 draws and 1 victory for each side. Porto have won 4 of their last 5 games. Benfica won 3 out of 5 of their last matches. Dragons lose a bit less goals on average.
