Benfica Porto betting prediction

The away team comes to this stage of the Taça da Liga (Semi‑finals) after having finished the group stage in the 1^st position of Group C, with 7 points won. In their last match, for the Primeira Liga, they got an away win against Chaves by (1‑4). In the last 10 away matches Porto has won 9 and tied 1. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 12 of the last 28 matches have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 17 out of 28 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times but have always turned the score around. In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

FC Porto comes to this game motivated after having returned to the victories, having triumphed in the field of Chaves by 1-4: the team's goals were signed by Tiquinho Soares (3) and Nuno André Coelho (sown-goal). Like the opponent, they have won 8 of their previous 10 games. FC Porto has competence in the offensive sector, and in addition, the defensive line has acted with great quality: Felipe and Pepe are the bosses of the defense. It is inevitable to highlight '' marathon runner '' Alex Telles, who is responsible for making much of the left aisle. On the other hand, Moussa Marega is the great highlight of FC Porto with 15 goals scored in various competitions. For this important game coach Sérgio Conceição can not count on injured Aboubakar, and still has in doubts Otávio, Danilo Pereira and Maxi Pereira.
