Benfica Vitória Guimarães betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

We expect this to be a match in which the Benfica team will present a dominant posture in the initiative and management of ball possession, with a good reaction to the loss, from the beginning, in an attempt to win again and put pressure on FC Porto in the fight for the title. This against a Vitória SC squad committed to defending with a low block and exploring transitions, facing the "eagles" defending with great quality in recent weeks. Thus, a more tactical match is foreseen and without many clear chances of goals, also due to the good defensive consistency common to the Guimarães team.

In the last round, the team led by coach Roger Schmidt did not feel any problems in the visit to Madeira to overcome Marítimo, which they won, by 0-3, with a very convincing display from the 15 minute mark onwards. This was the sixth consecutive victory for the “eagles”, who had previously beaten the Belgians from Club Brugge (5-1), in the second leg of the Final 16 round of the Champions League, another competition where the reds dream of going as far as possible .

In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Santa Clara, by (1‑3). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Arouca, by (0‑2).

After a very positive series of six consecutive matches without losing (with five wins and a draw, that is, 16 points conquered in a possible 18), the team led by Moreno Teixeira once again defrauded expectations in the last round. At home, Vitória SC proved incapable of taking advantage of the goal opportunities created in the first half and ended up defeated, by 0-2, against Arouca, who allowed them to approach the 5th place.
