Taca de Portugal action continues on Tuesday night when Farense play host to Benfica at Estadio de Sao Luis. The Lions of Faro are in 16th place in the league standings while the Eagles are third after 17 games. Let’s get into the match prediction.
After a solid mid-table finish last season, Farense have experienced a major drop-off this term, currently on just 14 points in 17 games, leaving them in the sole relegation playoff spot.
However, the Lions of Faro have shown signs of improvement lately, conceding just one loss in five in the league while they secured wins over Sanjoanense and Arouca in the last two rounds of this competition.
The hosts have been fairly poor at home this season with just two wins in eight games, and they have failed to beat this opponent in their last 12 attempts across all competitions.
Meanwhile, Benfica will enter this match overflowing with confidence after earning their first piece of silverware for the season, beating Sporting on penalties in the Taca da Liga final at the weekend.
The Eagles will need to bring that momentum into this match having lost their last two league games - the first time they lost successive top-flight matches since April 2023.
On the road this season, the visitors have posted a record of four wins, two draws and two defeats in the league, while they only lost once on the road in Europe.
