2.09Tip and bets
Benfica are currently only third in the table and are already five points behind second place – even with a game in hand, such a handicap can already be called significant. It is obvious that the Eagles will be determined today and will strive to take all three points – it is unlikely that Porto has a chance to play to zero. At the same time, the Dragons are in great shape, they score a lot and regularly, they are quite capable of responding to them.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Prediction - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.99
Bet on the outcome
Benfica are showing very high-quality football in the championship, but several mistakes at the start have not yet allowed the Eagles to be called a clear contender for the championship title. Today, the Lisbon team can regain this status and will most likely play only to win. Benfica definitely has a chance of success - in the last two home matches, Porto managed to beat them, and the Dragons do not have an advantage in class.
The bet is for Benfica to win. This bet is offered at 2.05
Bet on corners
Benfica will most likely play first at home and will spend a lot of time attacking – the hosts should win confidently on corners.
The bet is Benfica to win on corners. This bet is offered at 1.61
