Boavista Benfica betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This should be a game where Benfica will have the majority ownership, although, due to the difficulties of creation that has exhibited in recent weeks, there are no facilities provided to pierce the defensive wall that Boavista must re-assemble, in the image of what has played in most games against opponents of superior value. Since the draw will be a good result for the home team and a stumble that could cost the eagles dearly (who are forced to win to keep the lead isolated), a game of anxiety and little clarity is expected in the last third, from both teams.

Preview
Boavista and Benfica face at Estádio do Bessa Século XXI, in a match for the 13th round of the Primeira Liga. The head‑to‑head record at this stadium favours the away team, since in the last 4 head‑to‑heads they won 2, tied 1 and lost 1. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Primeira Liga, on 18‑08‑2018, Benfica won by (0‑2). F. Ferreyra (35' ) and Pizzi (62' ) scored the goals of the match for Benfica. The home/away factor is worth special atention, since although this is a match between 5th and 1st of the league table, it’s also a match between the 10th best team in home matches and the 1st best in away matches.

Analysis Boavista

The home team is currently in the 5th position of the league, with 18 points won, after 4 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Porto, by (0‑1). In the last match, they won in an away match against Santa Clara, by (1‑2). This is a team that maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since they have had similar results in both conditions. For the league, Boavista won 9 points out of 18 possible points, after 2 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss in the last 6 home matches. 18 of their last 22 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. In 12 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 8 home matches for all competitions: they have scored 4 of their 6 goals between minutes (0'‑15').

Boavista will take part in the opening match of the 13th round of the NOS League with a remarkable comfort in the leaderboard, something that few teams reach, among those who, like the "chessmen", have the priority of maintenance. Lito Vidigal's team is just two points behind Sporting, following a campaign where the highlight goes to their defensive consistency and the preferentially retreated form in which they play in most games. Last week, Boavista went to Azores to beat Santa Clara by 2-1, benefiting from two errors in approaching the island defense to reach the advantage of two goals in the first half. Just near the end, Santa Clara fixed the final result, although it had wasted a few chances before. With that, Boavista returned to victories and overcame the losing streak against Vitória de Setúbal and FC Porto.

Confirmed Lineup: Rafael Bracalli, Fabiano, Neris, Marlon, Ricardo Costa, Rafael Costa, Carraça, Paulinho, Nwankwo Obiora, Gustavo Sauer, Nikola Stojiljković.
Coach: Petit.

Analysis Benfica

The away team is currently in the 1st position of the league, with 33 points won, after 11 wins and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Santa Clara, by (1‑2). In the last match, they won in a home match against Marítimo, by (4‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, with 18 goals scored and 2 conceded at home, against 11 goals scored and 2 conceded in away matches. In their last match, for the Taça da Liga, they got an away tie against Sporting Covilhã by (1‑1).

In this competition, they have a sequence of 5 wins in the last away matches. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 3 of the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 9 of the last 12 matches for the Primeira Liga, they have reached half‑time in front in 7 of those 9 matches and have always held on to the lead until the end of the 90'. In the last 7 away matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 4 of their 9 goals between minutes (76'‑90'); they have conceded 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Benfica is going to Estádio do Bessa looking to provisionally increase their distance at the moment in the lead, against FC Porto, which is on two points. The 'incarnated' managed to leave behind the Champions League departure last weekend with a quiet 4-0 win at home against Marítimo, with two goals from Carlos Vinícius, a own-goal and another goal from Pizzi set Benfica's return to victory, a display without need, willingness and physical willingness to put his foot on the accelerator. Meanwhile, on Tuesday, Bruno Lage's team returned to one of the goals of the season compromised, going beyond a draw (1-1) against Covilhã, team that has been fighting for the rise in the Pro League. The League Cup match leaves Benfica in a tricky situation on the eve of the last round, as it is not up to them to reach the final four.

Confirmed Lineup: Odysseas Vlachodimos, Francisco Ferreira, Tomas Tavares, Rúben Dias, Álex Grimaldo, Franco Cervi, Gabriel Pires, Adel Taarabt, Pizzi, Chiquinho, Carlos Vinícius.
Coach: R. Schmidt.
