Command Analysis

Gil Vicente

Current form
Gil Vicente was a clear contender for a place in the middle of the table at the start of the season – the selection of players allowed him to keep his residence in the Mayor's Office without any problems. However, already in the first round, the Roosters regularly lost points and gradually slipped into a serious crisis that could turn the rest of the season into a desperate struggle for survival. At the moment, Cesar Peixote's team is on the 14th line in the table with 23 points and is only moving away from the transition zone due to additional indicators, the direct relegation zone is six points away.

Benfica

Current form
Before the start of the season, Benfica was traditionally considered one of the main contenders for the championship title along with Sporting and Porto - the selection of players made it possible to set maximum goals. Bruno Lage's team made several mistakes in the first round, but overall they held it steady and remain in the championship race – the Eagles are second in the table and three points behind Sporting, who played the match more, with Porto six points below. After beating Rio Ave 3-2 in the last round, Benfica secured their sixth consecutive league victory.

2.65Tip and bets
Benfica crashed out of the Champions League and can now focus on the championship, where the prospect of competing for the league title is more than real. It is obvious that the Eagles will come for three points and for sure from the very first minutes they will put serious pressure on the not very reliable defense of Gil Vicente. In the last five face–to-face meetings, Benfica scored 16 goals against the Roosters - it makes sense to count on a large number of goals from the favorite today, but Vicente in his current state will hardly be able to resist such a powerful attack.
We believe that the hosts will miss it. The betting tip is that Benfica's individual total is more than two goals. This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.05
Betting on the outcome
Benfica is chasing Sporting and, in general, has excellent chances for the championship title – a favorite has no right to lose points against an opponent like Gil Vicente. The Roosters have been in a serious crisis for a long time, having lost seven of their last eight matches, and it will be very difficult to fight a title contender in this state, and the difference in class between the rivals is enormous. It is unlikely that the hosts have a real chance of avoiding a major defeat, Benfica is able to get three points without any problems.
The bet is an Asian handicap (-1.5) on Benfica. This bet is offered for 2.19
Betting on corners
Benfica is the favorite and will probably spend most of the match attacking – the visitors should win confidently from the corners.
The bet is an Asian handicap (-3) on corners for Benfica. This bet is offered for 1.79
