The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Benfica II are in the 12th position while the guesting Academico Viseu worry at 18th.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Benfica II form and stats

Three Segunda Liga home games done for Benfica II, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Benfica with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Casa Pia game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss. The Benfica II manager R. Alves Paiva might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 263 minutes without scoring a league goal. Morato was the last player to find the net.

The fans are hoping that Benfica will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Segunda Liga game against Arouca (placed 6th). Before that game, the home loss against Estoril with the scoreline 0-1.

The Benfica manager R. Alves Paiva has got the team scoring with 6 from 3 home games in the league. Benfica are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (7 from 3 played).

Academico Viseu form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Segunda Liga for Academico Viseu, who have the fewest scored goals (2) in Segunda Liga, with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

Academico Viseu have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 203 minutes ago. F. Ferreira was the goal scorer.

Academico failed to get anything from their last game, a Segunda Liga home match vs Cova Piedade (placed 11th) that ended with defeat 0-2. A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Académica.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Academico manager S. Rodrigues Branco as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Vitória FC.

Academico Viseu have the goal stats of 1-2 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
