Vizela
  • Kokçu and Florentino will serve a ban due to an accumulation of bookings, which might force Roger Schmidt to use João Neves and Aursnes in midfield.
  • After a brace of assists against Vitória SC, Di Maria scored two goals against Toulouse and will be full of confidence on Sunday.
  • Sava Petrov serves a ban after being sent off against Gil Vicente giving Awudu a chance to start.

Prediction

  • SL Benfica has been far from convincing lately as they slipped up against Guimaraes between narrow wins against FC Vizela and Toulouse. Roger Schmidt’s men will need to improve if they want to keep the pressure on leaders Sporting.
  • FC Vizela finally got back to winning ways last time around as they defeated Gil Vicente 1-0 away from home, allowing them to escape the bottom of the table. They seem to be more comfortable playing outside their stadium as they earned 10 of their 16 points as visitors.
  • Both sides met recently at the Portuguese Cup with FC Vizela giving the defending champions a tough 90 minutes. However, this time around things should be different and SL Benfica should get a routine home win.
