Benfica II Académica betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Benfica B needs the three points in this round, for this reason it is expected a good entry from Nélson Veríssimo's team. The tendency is for the hosts to go up from the first minute to cause a lot of problems for the opposing defense, as they have several very strong players in offensive moves. Académica de Coimbra wants to heal the wound caused by the elimination of the Portuguese Cup, and for that they need to show good football. To try to add points, the visitors should play most of the game “hidden”, waiting for an opportunity to explore the space in the back of the red defensive line and in this way score the winning goal. With this scenario betting on “both score” is a worthwhile option.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 4 losses in the last away matches and they haven't won any of the last 7 matches.

For this game, away from home, coach João Carlos Pereira should keep the team in the usual tactical formation, the 4-3-3, promoting ball possession and positional attacks. João Carlos, Sodiq Fatai and Traquina should be the offensive references of the “students”. As far as the midfield is concerned, Jonathan Toro, Reko and Ricardo Dias are likely to play. Apparently, the Briosa manager can count on all players.

Confirmed Lineup: Mika, Zé Castro, Michael Douglas, João Carlos, Fábio Vianna, Christian, Ricardo Dias, Hugo Seco, João Pedro, Jonathan Toro.
Coach: J. Gomes da Silva.
