Benfica form and stats

Benfica, who have the fewest conceded goals (3) in Primeira Liga, have secured 6 points from their first three home games in the Primeira Liga. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.

The points were shared in Benfica's previous game, also at home. Visiting Vitoria Guimaraes (placed 6th) travelled back with a point after a 0-0 scoreline. A strong away win before that one, visiting Moreirense and winning 2-1.

Benfica are huge favourites in this match and it would be a big surprise if they fail to leave Estádio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica with maximum points. The home side has been in this situation before, with huge expectations of a win. 21 earlier games are comparable to this one, and Benfica has won 17 times, drawn 2 and lost 2. Sports bettors who like handicap betting will like to know that Benfica has won by at least two goals 12 times when in this position.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Benfica as they are travelling to their away game against Zenit in the Champions League. That match is four days after this one.

Goals decide football matches and Benfica are scoring many of them at home; 7 on target from 3 league matches. Benfica are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estádio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 2 from 3 matches.
