Farense will continue their Liga Portugal campaign this Saturday evening as they host Benfica at Estadio de Sao Luis. Currently, Farense is in 18th place with four points, while Benfica sits in third with 19 points. Here’s our match prediction.
In their last outing, Farense struggled against Braga, recording just 28% possession and four shots, resulting in a 2-0 defeat. This marked their seventh loss of the season, following six consecutive defeats at the start. However, they did find some confidence in their recent home win against Estoril.
Benfica, meanwhile, advanced to the semi-finals of the Taca de Portugal with a commanding 3-0 victory over Santa Clara, scoring all three goals between the 70th and 80th minutes. This victory was their fourth in five matches, with their only loss during that stretch coming against Feyenoord in the UEFA Champions League.
The Reds have also been impressive away from home, winning their last three matches while conceding just one goal and scoring seven. Given their strong form, Benfica is expected to secure the win in this matchup.
