Santa Clara welcome the visitors Benfica in the Portuguese Primeira Liga – Round 17. The match will be held on Friday, January 11th, at the Estadio de Sao Miguel (Ponta Delgada).
We suggest not to complicate things and bet on Benfica’s win in the coming match under the moderate but quite doable odds, as Santa Clara’s side can in no way be compared to the visiting Portuguese topper. In fact, tomorrow’s duel reminds a Spanish clash of Barcelona with, say, a Levante. In front of their own fans, Santa Clara can sometimes make surprises; for example, they have recently drawed against Braga at home, 3:3. That said, the hosts are far from being called consistent – on their soil, they lost to Sporting Lisbon, 1:2, Rio Ave, 1:3, Belenenses, 2:3, Porto, 1:2, and Tondela, 1:2.

As for Benfica, they currently face harsh competition in their run for gold medals, so, they will not relax anyhow these days. The team will look to rack up points in every encounter, otherwise even Jose Mourinho will not help them get to the Champions League spots in the end – the Portuguese specialist is said to be appointed a new team’s manager soon.
We expect the guests’ confident win tomorrow. Also, their win with over 2.5 goals produced looks nice.
Prediction for the match: Benfica to win away.
