Benfica is making up for lost time in the Primeira Liga after a sorry start to the campaign under the guidance of former manager Roger Schmidt. After being regarded as a midtable team, they are currently making a charge for the top spot as they occupy third place with 13 points from six games and are five points behind league leaders Sporting CP.
Bruno Lage is the new face leading the 38-time champions to glory this season. So far, he has lived up to expectations, winning his first three games, including a 2-1 victory away to Crvena Zvezda in the UEFA Champions League. The Eagles head into this matchday off the back of a 3-0 league victory over Boavista on Monday.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Trubin; Araujo, Silva, Otamendi, Carreras; Luis, Aursnes; Di Maria, Kokcu, Akturkoglu; Pavlidis
Gil Vicente
Form: DDDDW
Gil Vicente, on the other hand, has made a positive start to the current campaign and is trying to justify their status as a midtable team. They finished in 12th place last season, barely escaping the relegation zone, and will be aiming to improve on that finish this season, which they already are as they occupy 9th place with seven points after six games.
The Gilistas extended their draw streak in the league to four matches following their 1-1 draw against Casa Pia at home. However, they have maintained a five-match unbeaten run and will be hoping to extend that run with a favorable outcome against a flying Benfica.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 4-3-3
Andrew; Carlos, Buatu, Fernandes, Cruz; Fujimoto, Castillo, Garcia; Correira, Aguirre, Mboula
