📋 Team News: Casa Pia

In all likelihood, Os Gansos (The Geese) look set to use a 3-4-3 formation this time, handing starts to Patrick Sequeira, Andre Geraldes, Jose Fonte, Joao Goulart, Gaizka Larrazabal, Rafael Brito, Iyad Mohamed, Abdu Conte, Jeremy Livolant, Cassiano and D. Rocha Livramento.

Benfica boss José Mourinho has to currently contend with reduced team options. Bruma (unknown injury), João Veloso (Shoulder injury) and Fredrik Aursnes (Rest) are not able to play. Amar Dedić will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

We believe Benfica might begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 system, giving starts to Anatoliy Trubin, Alexander Bah, Tomas Araujo, Nicolas Otamendi, Samuel Dahl, Richard Rios, Enzo Barrenechea, Gianluca Prestianni, Rafa Silva, Andreas Schjelderup and Vangelis Pavlidis.

💡 Prediction

We’re thinking that Benfica are likely to have the majority of the possession and should turn some of their chances into goals.

Conversely, Casa Pia might well find it difficult to make a breakthrough but we think it’s quite likely that they will be managing to get on the scoresheet here.

Our tip is for a fairly comfortable 1-3 winning score for Benfica at the end of the 90 minutes.
