BENFICA VS MOREIRENSE PREVIEW & PREDICTION

In order to achieve a victory that will ensure its presence in the next edition of the UEFA Champions League, the Benfica team is preparing to receive the visit of a modest Moreirense, which will be played at the Estadio do Sport Lisboa by the last day of the Primeira Liga de Portugal.

Benfica:

After having made a huge effort to snatch the first place from the “Dragons”, Benfica’s cast could not maintain the pressure of the Dragons and so those led by Rui Vitória could not be victorious in the decisive game at home against FC Porto and a goal from Hector Herrera in the final minutes of the game, allowed Oporto to regain the leadership of the Primeira Liga and thus become champion a few weeks ago.

Apparently this game affected the performance of some “Eagles” that come from losing to Tondela at home 2-3 and now last a goalless draw in their visit to Sporting Lisbon in results that complicate their classification directly to the Liga de Champions for the next season, and we say this because at the moment Benfica is second but only for better goal-scoring productivity compared to Sporting Lisbon because both add up to 78 points and it is so this Sunday there is no other way to win or win.

Moreirense:

For their part, those led by Petit reach this commitment after two consecutive defeats against Vitória Guimarães and now last at home 0-3 against Desportivo Aves, and although they are far from the red zone they should not be very calm since only is three points above Vitória Setúbal and Estoril, and a win here plus a triumph of these could make him lose the category, so he travels to Lisbon in search of that point they are looking for a few weeks ago.

But the main problem for Moreirense is his poor performance away from home where they have not won in the last five starts ending four of them with defeats and for a change he has lost in his last seven visits to the eagles.


PREDICTION: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.38
