Famalicao was the revelation in the 2019/20 season of the Portuguese league. Let’s remember that he was one of those promoted for that campaign and his good results after the break left him just one point behind the Europa League qualification zone. In fact, he lost the ticket on the final date at the last minute of his duel with Marítimo that tied him 3-3. The Famalice team achieved great results such as the victory over Porto (2-1) or the draw with Benfica (1-1), both at home.
On the contrary, the ‘eagles’ returned to activity in June with several poor results that left it without a title. He tied with Tondela, Portimonense and Famalicao himself; he lost to Marítimo and Santa Clara. Unexpected results that made Porto’s task easier. Benfica changed DT, now they have Jorge Jesus, and with him came the attackers Everton, Pedrinho and Darwin Núñez. Be careful, they have just been eliminated from the Champions League.
Famalicao lost his main offensive reference, Fabio Martins: 12 goals and 10 assists the previous season.
Midweek Benfica lost 2-1 on their visit to Greek PAOK and was left out of the Champions League.
Last season they collided 4 times: they drew two at Famalicao’s home (1-1); and Benfica won the others at home (4-0 and 3-2).
PREDICTION: Benfica to win @ 1,43
