Benfica will welcome Boavista to the Estadio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica in the 18th round of the Primeira Liga.

Boavista aims for a second straight victory against the hosts, having handed them a 3-2 defeat earlier in the season. However, their current form, significantly diminished from their earlier success, makes the prospect of achieving such a feat quite challenging.

Benfica

Form: WWWWD

Benfica were far from displaying mercy in their most recent league match against Tenman Rio Ave, as they cruised to a comfortable 4-1 victory at home.

The Eagles have recorded thirteen wins from 17 league matches, and their impressive performance thus far has them in the running to retain their title. Currently boasting a four-match winning streak in the league, this just marks a brief segment of their impressive performance, as they are unbeaten in sixteen matches, not to mention that they have yet to lose in their last eight matches (W6 D2). Such results have been worthy of commendation, making them overwhelming favorites to secure maximum points in this impending encounter.

With 42 points accumulated from 17 matches, Benfica sits second in the Primeira Liga standings, four points ahead of third-placed FC Porto and one point behind first-placed Sporting CP.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Trubin; Aursnes, Silva, Otamendi, Morato; Neves, Kokcu; Di Maria, Silva, Mario; Leonardo

Boavista

Form: WDLDL

Boavista has drifted far from the team that once competed with the top four sides in the league earlier in the season. Boavista have recorded five wins in seventeen league matches and are a long way out of the European football spots, bearing a thirteen-point deficit.

In their latest match against Vizela on the road, they comfortably recorded a 4-1 victory, snapping an eleven-match winless run (L7 D4) in the league. Away from home, they have recorded three wins from eight matches while recording four losses and a draw, and such a lackluster performance could prove to be their downfall in this impending encounter.

With 20 points accumulated from 17 matches, Boavista sits ninth in the Primeira Liga standings, one point ahead of tenth-placed Casa Pia and two points behind seventh-placed Famalicao.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Goncalves; Santos, Sasso, Abascal, Ferreira; Makouta, Perez; Lourenco, Reisinho, Morais; Bozenik

Expert Betting Tips

Benfica are a mere one point away from taking over first place in the Primeira Liga standings, and this fixture presents them with a good opportunity to do so. That's because league leaders Sporting CP, who played a day earlier, were to suffer a setback in their match.

Considering that the Eagles have yet to lose their home matches this season, this could turn out to be a relatively comfortable win. However, we expect both sides to get on the scoreboard in this one, as this has been the case in five of their last six meetings.
