Tondela form and stats

Tondela have played three Primeira Liga home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

Tondela are returning here after visiting Desportivo Aves in a Primeira Liga game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Before that, Tondela played out a draw 0-0 when visiting Boavista.

Tondela have scored 2 league goals here from 3 matches, not a lot. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Tondela defense is not exactly impregnable. 5 goals conceded from 3 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Benfica form and stats

Benfica are yet to lose a point on their Primeira Liga travels this season with 3 wins from 3 away games. The fact that Benfica have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting. It’s been three wins in a row for Benfica on their travels, an amazing performance which inspire hopes of making this one the fourth consecutive victory.

Two away games in a row for Benfica, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-3 versus Zenit in the Champions League. Before that, Benfica secured a home win against Vitória Setúbal with the score 1-0.

Benfica create on average more than 2,5 goals per away game (in the league) all by themselves, having scored 8 goals in 3 travels. Benfica's manager Bruno Lage has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 1 conceded goal. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
