Team News

Estoril
Benfica
  • Holsgrove will miss out through suspension here, which could give Pavlic a chance to start.
  • Tiago Araújo scored last time around and will be full of confidence to face his former team.
  • Di María will likely miss out through injury which opens the Starting XI door to João Mário.
  • Bah is also an injury concern, and will probably be replaced by Aursnes if he doesn't recover on time.

Prediction

  • Estoril were unable to keep a 2-goal lead against Vitória SC and ended up losing 3-2 against the 'Vimaranenses'. Vasco Seabra' men will look to return to winning ways in the league, where they're facing a 5-match winning drought.
  • After defeating direct rivals FC Porto, SL Benfica lost to Inter Milan in midweek. Roger Schmidt' men were ineffective upfront against the 'nerazurri' and will need to improve in order to keep their domestic winning run.
  • This will be no walk in the park for SL Benfica, but they should get all three points as they have a far better team than their opponents.
