Casa Pia barely stayed in the Portuguese Primera last season. The club got into the play-off zone, but managed to beat the Portuguese Cup winner, Torrins. (0:0, 2:0). They managed to start the series of friendly matches with a victory over Estrela (2:1), but then defeats from Feirense (0:2) and Leixoesha (2:6) followed. Unfortunately, the series of defeats continued in the championship - in the first round, the hosts were defeated by Maritimu (0:2).
Benfica finished last season in only third place in the standings, so the visitors were left without the Champions League. Even in the Europa League, you will have to qualify. In the previous stages, we managed to beat Swiss St. Gallen (1:2, 5:0) and Scottish Hearts (6:1, 1:1). Participation in European competitions had a negative impact on the start of the Portuguese championship - in the first round, the Eagles could not beat Academico Viseu (2:2).
The guests, of course, need to win in the second round, as there was a loss of points in the first match. But the Lisbonians are playing too unstable - after two consecutive crushing victories, two consecutive draws followed. Moreover, in the last three face-to-face matches, Benfica has not won a single victory. Casa Pia will probably perform well this time, besides, the hosts will have the support of the stands.
