Match preview: Porto vs Benfica
Team analysis: Porto
In this season, they are unbeaten in their last 13 home matches in the league. Typically, the most frequent scoreline at half-time in their home games has been 1-0 (5 out of 13 games). However, defensively, they have allowed goals in 7 of their last 10 matches. Though their defensive solidity may be questionable, their attack has been prolific, scoring in 9 out of their last 10 league games. Interestingly, in their home matches, there has been a goal surge, with all of their last 13 league games witnessing more than 1.5 goals. In 27 league matches, they managed to come from behind to win in only 1 of the 10 matches in which they conceded the first goal.
As Porto enters this crucial clash against Benfica, they trail by 9 points, with Benfica also just 9 points behind the leaders Sporting, highlighting the tight race for the top spots. This season has presented numerous challenges for Porto, with ongoing issues both on and off the pitch impacting their squad quality. Despite these struggles, Porto arrives with a current streak of 2 consecutive wins, first against AVS at home (2-0), followed by an away victory against Estoril (2-1). Prior to these victories, they suffered a defeat against Sporting Braga, with whom they share the same points. This match against Benfica represents a vital opportunity for Porto to narrow the gap and contest for 2nd place, as anything less could see them in a tight race with Sporting Braga for 3rd place.
Team analysis: Benfica
Their attacking prowess has been consistent, finding the net in each of their last 10 competitive outings. In their 27 league matches, they have successfully reversed the score in 3 of the 7 games where they conceded the first goal.
Benfica is engaged in a closely fought battle for leadership. With only 7 rounds remaining, they are currently level on points with Sporting. They come into this match after another narrow victory, albeit a shaky one against Farense (3-2), which left their supporters on edge until the final whistle. Similar concerns were evident in their previous match against Rio Ave, where they managed to secure a 3-2 win after leading by 2 goals. This indicates that Benfica is facing more challenges compared to Sporting at this moment. While these difficulties may pose issues ahead, the pressure is palpable as Benfica realises that any points lost in their race against Sporting could be tough to recover, heightening the stakes for this clash in the Dragon Kingdom.
