LiontipsFarense - Benfica. Betting Tip (odds 2.15) and bets on the Portuguese Cup match
Command Analysis
Current form
Farense approached the start of the Primeira Liga season as one of the main candidates for relegation – so far this status has not been called into question. With 14 points, Tose Marreco’s team is in the penultimate place in the table, but at the same time is not in a hopeless situation, lagging behind the saving 15th place by only one point. In the last round, the lions sensationally took points away from Santa Clara, drawing a goalless draw with the opponent. Thus, the series without defeats in the championship lasted to three matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
The hosts have no problems with the squad.
Interesting trends for betting
- Farense have not won in their last three matches – one win and two draws
- Farense has scored against Benfica in his last three matches
Estimated line-up: Velho - Lucas, Falcan, Moreno - Pastor, Meninho, Neto, Victor - Mergem, Tomane, Matias.
Current form
Benfica traditionally was among the main favorites of the championship before the start of the season – so far Bruno Lage’s team does not fully correspond to this status. Based on the results of 17 rounds, the eagles occupy third place in the table with 38 points and are three points behind the leader Sporting, two points ahead of Porto. A few days ago, Benfica won their first trophy of the season, winning the Portuguese League Cup. In the final, the eagles met Sporting and drew 1:1 with the lions in regular time, but were stronger in the penalty shootout.
Disqualifications and injuries
Gouveia and Beste are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Benfica have beaten Farense in their last two matches
- Benfica have conceded in three of their last four matches

1.39Tip and bets
Benfica had a very difficult match against Sporting in the League Cup final a few days ago and a lot of effort was given there, the hosts will certainly strive for this. Farense has looked quite decent lately and the lions scored in the last two matches against Benfica, they are quite capable of distinguishing themselves today. At the same time, Benfica advantage in class is obvious and the eagles will also have enough motivation, an exchange of goals is almost inevitable.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Betting Tip - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.05
Bet on the outcome
Benfica will obviously make some rotation today after winning the League Cup, but the Eagles have a very high-quality reserve and possible changes will not weaken the team much. Winning the Cup is clearly in the Eagles' plans and there will be enough motivation, the hosts should hardly count on leniency. Farense played well in the last matches of the championship, but it will be difficult to show something against such an opponent, the favorite will probably easily and confidently secure a place in the quarterfinals.
The bet is Asian handicap (-2) on Benfica. This bet is offered for 2.15
Bet on corners
Benfica are the favourites and will probably spend the entire 90 minutes attacking – the visitors should win confidently on corners.
The bet is Asian handicap (-3) on corners for Benfica. This bet is offered for 1.75
