Paços de Ferreira Benfica betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This will be a match between teams motivated by the last results in the championship, although they have very different objectives and different ways of acting. Paços team won’t mind giving Benfica ball possession, giving priority to their defensive organization. A style that Bruno Lage's men are used to facing, both at home and away, so the superior technical quality of the “reds” should bring the team close to three points, in a context where, after scoring the first, ease of finding the goal path will increase.

In the last week, the team led by Pepa drew in the reception to Gil Vicente (0-0), adding the fourth consecutive match to score and without conceding goals, in a very positive mark of the pacense team. The elimination of the Portuguese Cup, in the quarter-finals, against Famalicão (0-1), does not seem to have affected Paços, who knows what they want in this championship, having, of course, the main objective of permanence, especially because this is the year of return to the elite of Portuguese football for those from Mata Real.
