Portimonense - Benfica betting tips and odds

With most bookies pricing a home win at 7.50, this is one of the more lopsided matches of the season. Needless to say, Portimonense don’t stand much of a chance at coming out on top.

Benfica seem to be on their way to another easy victory and 3 more points to the tally. Priced at 1.50, the odds favour them heavily, so any outcome other than an away win is not exactly a safe choice.

Portimonense are coming on the back of great success in their latest away game. Despite all the odds, they grabbed an early lead against Famalicão and turned it into a surprise 0:1 victory.

Benfica are coming off of an impossibly difficult matchup against Gil Vicente in the previous round. The heavily favoured away team easily secured a 1:2 victory after a lead in the first half.

The home team gives their opponents plenty of reasons to worry about the upcoming fixture. They’re on something of a streak with 5 goals scored over the last 3 matches.

Looking over the visitors and their recent history, we noticed they’ve scored more than 5 goals in their previous 3 appearances. This signals a consistent ability to score in most matchups, which is good news for their supporters.

With 57 points in total, Benfica would need to close a 12-point difference to take the top spot in the standings. The season is going by quickly, though, and they’ll need to act quickly if they still have ambitions to take the title.

We can rely on the teams’ previous meeting as a point of reference. Earlier in the season, Benfica won a Primeira Liga match against Portimonense in a relatively close game. With that in mind, the 1.50 odds on the visitors winning make a lot of sense.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.77 if you use the 10Bet sportsbook.
