Command Analysis
Current form
By the start of the season, Benfica was approaching the status of the main contender for the championship title and the selection of players obliged them to set maximum goals. In general, the Eagles went through the starting segment quite successfully, but they made several mistakes, which turned out to be enough for the competitors – so far, Jose Mourinho's team is third in the table and six points behind the leader Porto, three points ahead of Sporting. Having beaten National 2-1 in the last round, Benfica secured their eighth victory of the season.

Sporting, like its current rival, clearly set maximum goals for itself and hoped to defend the championship title – the lions did not step on any of the competitors in terms of player selection. At the start of the season, Ruy Borges' team looked very decent and fully corresponded to its status, but so far it is in second place in the table and three points behind the leader Porto. Having beaten Estrela 4-0 in the last round, Sporting secured its 10th victory in the championship.

2.75Tip and bets
Benfica will certainly strive to take all three points today and get close to their main competitors – for sure, the eagles will bet on attacking and will be aggressive in front of their field from the first seconds. In the last four derbies against Benfica, Sporting has consistently missed and it will also be very problematic to win back today, given the attacking potential of the opponent. At the same time, the lions also have their trump cards ahead and have scored the most in the championship, Sporting is quite capable of responding, an exchange of goals is almost inevitable.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. The betting tip is that both will score. This bet is offered for 1.80
Betting on the outcome
Benfica is still third and already six points behind the leader Porto - considering how rarely competitors lose points in the championship, such a handicap can already be called significant. It is quite obvious that the eagles will strive to take all three points today, but at the same time, the cost of making a mistake is too high – a defeat can seriously complicate life in the fight for the title. Sporting, in turn, is unlikely to take too much risk with a draw, and such a result at Estadio da Luzhniki will generally suit Lviv well. Three of the last four derbies between Benfica and Sporting ended in draws, and it makes sense to count on such a result today.
The bet is a draw. This bet is offered for 3.35
Betting on corners
There is no clear favorite in the derby, for sure each side will strive to prove itself ahead – there should be a lot of corners in such a match.
The bet is a total of more than 9.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.85
