Benfica form and stats
Benfica have played 4 Primeira Division games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).
A strong away win for Benfica against Toi Seng the last match.
Before that, a strong away win at Hang Sai. A FA Cup game. It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Benfica have performed as huge favourites like they are today: 30 games found in the database showing 27 Benfica wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats.
The manager Tavares will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Monte Carlo in only four days.
Early season league goal statistics from Benfica's 4 home games: {8 goals}, 8 conceded.
Tak Chun Ka I form and stats
There's been little loot from Tak Chun Ka I's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 7 away games in the Primeira Division. Tak Chun Ka I only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 1 draw. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Tak Chun Ka I's last three away games as they have all been lost.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a FA Cup home loss versus Toi Seng with 1-2 on the scoreboard.
The match before was the FA Cup-battle against CPK, a home defeat (0-2). Nobody expects Tak Chun Ka I to collect anything from a game like this. The team has been David versus Goliath 21 times before, with the overall statistics of won 3, draw 5 and lost 13. When defeated, 11 matches have been lost by two or more goals.
Goal hungry football fans should note that 11 of this team's 12 latest league games have ended with three goals or more.
The Chun defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 23 goals in their away games.
Head 2 Head
Benfica have won all of the 7 most recent battles against this opponent. Another win today?The records show that this isn''t the first time these teams face each other this campaign, as the results database show this recent match: Tak Chun Ka I - Benfica 1-4.
