Team News

Portimonense
Benfica
  • Paulo Sérgio has a full squad available for Sunday.
  • After scoring a brace, Carlinhos will likely be boosted here.
  • Musa went off injured last time out and might be unavailable here which leaves Tengsted and Cabral competing to feature upfront.
  • Trubin had an unimpressive performance last time around but Schmidt should keep his confidence in the Ukrainian keeper.

Prediction

  • Portimonense came from behind to earn their first win of the season as they've defeated Vitória SC by 2-1. They've improved a lot at the back and are expected to be confident for Sunday.
  • SL Benfica were beaten by Salzburg in midweek. They conceded a penalty and were down to 10 men from the 15th minute mark which explains such result. Before this, the Eagles had a decent display against FC Vizela.
  • Roger Schmidt's men will look to get their Champions League defeat out of their minds with a win here. However, that will be no easy task.
