Match Overview

Benfica host Boavista in a match in the Liga Portugal at the Estadio da Luz on Friday. This game is expected to be rather lopsided in its nature with Benfica dominating vast majorities of it. Boavista, however, will be expected to put up a challenge that will force Benfica to go on the back foot. By and large, however, the hosts have an advantage.

Key Highlights 

It must be remembered that Benfica are ranked 3rd in goals scored per match (2.1 goals). They have also kept the most number of clean sheets in the competition (9), which means that their defence has been extraordinarily rock-solid in its approach. Their star player Rafa Silva is ranked 1st in big chances created in the competition (14).

Injury Report

Benfica will have to make do without the services of Juan Bernat and David Neres in this game whereas for Boavista, Salvador Agra and Cesar are amongst the biggest absentees in this game owing to injuries sustained earlier in the season. 

Prediction

Benfica appear to be the downright favourites to win this game, and we expect them to do so quite comfortably in the end. Boavista, who are ranked 7th in goals scored per match (1.5 goals), have not kept a clean sheet in their last 19 matches. Bizarrely, though, their goalkeeper Joao Goncalves is ranked 2 in saves per match in the competition (3.9).
