Sporting vs Benfica Prediction: Liga Portuguese Match on 06.04.2024

The fascinating race for the top flight title in Portugal continues this weekend, as the top two teams collide in Lisbon. Sporting will need a positive result to remain top of the standings, while a victory for Benfica would see them end the round at the summit.

 

Liga Portugal Preview

The race for the top flight title in Portugal looks set to go down to the wire this term. But, we could find out more about the likely competitors for the top prize this weekend, as Sporting Lisbon welcome Benfica. These two sides are separated by just a point coming into this weekend, but Sporting do have the added benefit of having a game in hand over their rivals.

The home side also boasts the better form coming into this round after winning each of their last four matches in the competition. Sporting have also won 22 of their 26 matches this term, and have suffered just two defeats. Goal difference could yet be vital, meaning Sporting will be pleased that they boast an eleven-goal advantage over Benfica.

Sporting’s excellent league record was maintained in the previous round of fixtures, as they came back from a goal down against Estrela Amadora to pick up a 2-1 success. Nuno Santos scored the crucial winning effort in that fixture after Paulinho had opened the scoring after just 23 minutes. 

Benfica will have the added pressure on their shoulders this weekend, as they will likely need a victory to keep alive their hopes of winning the league title. They come into this round of matches after winning each of their last three in the competition. Their most recent success was achieved against Chaves last weekend, with Joao Neves netting the winner. 

Sporting vs Benfica Head to Head

Sporting ended a poor record in this fixture in late February by landing a 2-1 success in the cup against Benfica. However, that remains their only success in the previous six encounters between the sides. Over that period, Benfica have recorded two victories, with three matches ending in draws.

The trend of draws when these sides collide could be an interesting form line to follow this week. Therefore, we will be taking a chance on the points being shared in this title showdown in Portugal on Saturday.
