Benfica are currently in good form. They sit in 7th place in the league, but that's only because they've played just two matches. The key achievement for the "Eagles" at the start of this season is securing a spot in the main stage of the Champions League. In the playoffs, they eliminated Fenerbahçe, effectively leading to José Mourinho's dismissal. In the Primeira Liga, the "red and whites" have only faced teams at the bottom of the table so far, and they encountered no issues there.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Benfica haven't been particularly prolific in away fixtures, and this upcoming match is unlikely to buck that trend, especially with Bruno Lage's side likely to be fatigued following a tough Champions League encounter. Goals from Alverca seem even less probable, given the strength of their opposition. Consequently, we lean towards a low-scoring affair and suggest betting on a total of under 3.5 goals. We anticipate a modest victory for the visitors, perhaps a 0-1 scoreline.
