FC Vizela

From being eliminated in the Taca da Liga after losing 1-0 against AVS in the second round to kick-starting their 2023–24 Primeira Liga with a 3-2 loss against Sporting CP, which was followed by a draw and a 2-0 loss against Vitoria de Guimaraes, it's safe to say that they have endured a difficult start to the season.

However, they have managed to halt their four-match winless run across all competitions by picking up their first win of the season, defeating Gil Vicente 1-0 at home courtesy of a Matheus Pereira strike in the 56th minute.

With confidence reignited, they'll be eager to record their second victory on the bounce, though it won't be an easy fate given that they have not won any of their last six matches in this fixture, with a 1-1 draw being the only positive result recorded.

They currently occupy 12th place with four points, level with three other teams, and are two points clear of the relegation zone. Their bid for sixth place is hindered by a three-point deficit.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Buntic; Silva, Wilson, Anderson, Pereira; Bustamante, Samu; Moreira, Nascimento, Lacava; Essende

Benfica

Benfica, on the other hand, did start the season on a positive note, as their first competitive match against FC Porto saw them clinch the Portuguese Super Cup after winning 2-0.

However, their Primeira Liga title defense got off to a not-so-promising start, losing 3-2 to Boavista away from home. Since that defeat, they have unleashed their dominance, winning three consecutive matches and scoring nine goals in the process.

With this, they'll be eager to extend their winning run in the league to four matches, a feat that seems likely to be achievable as they take on a side they are currently on a two-match winning streak against while winning five of their last six matches.

They currently occupy 4th place with 9 points, level with 5th-placed Vitoria de Guimaraes and one point behind first place.

Expert Betting Tips

Nothing much can be expected from FC Vizela despite having home advantage at their disposal, as only two wins from their six competitive matches doesn't inspire much confidence to see them pose a threat in this one, not to mention their poor display in past meetings against Benfica.

Benfica have bounced back in fashionable style following a season opener stumble that witnessed them drop points. They currently find themselves riding on the back of a three-match winning streak and will be confident of further success against a side they have maintained overt superiority over.

As such, we anticipate this to be a straightforward win for Benfica by picking them up in the handicap at -1.5 to win by a goal difference of two.
