Portimonense - Benfica betting tips and odds

The most probable outcome of this match is Portimonense getting completely overwhelmed. They are underdogs by a considerable margin, and it’s not likely even the most optimistic of their fans are expecting them to pull off a victory.

Benfica are expected to win this match, which is made quite clear by the 1.50 odds that can be found with most bookies. The odds are not so short as to make an Away Win bet not worth taking, though, which also implies a certain degree of risk.

It’s fair to say Portimonense demonstrated their character in the last Primeira Liga clash. They held it level at the break and after the full 90 minutes against a tough rival and managed to record an important draw (Vizela).

Benfica have shown to know how to seize an opportunity and keep it going. Just last round they secured a solid 3:0 in a home game against Vitória Guimarães. Being hard favourites with odds of 1.34 on a home win, they easily took the lead in the first half and kept the upper hand until the end.

Portimonense fans are hoping they’ll be able to break stalemates this time – unlike in their previous 4 matches.

This match might present a rare opportunity to go for an Over 4.5 Goals bet. Benfica have netted 7 goals in each of their previous 3 games – which is quite a track record.

This is the second time we’re seeing these two teams play against one another in this season of the Primeira Liga – this time, Portimonense are playing as the hosts, having won their away game. However, the betting odds mark Benfica as the favourites despite the recent loss and the fact they’re playing as visitors.

With no injuries reported on either side of the pitch, both coaches have their full rosters at their disposal. As such, the odds remain firmly in the visitors’ favour.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 1.75 at Betsson.
