SC Braga vs Benfica Lisbon Prediction & Betting Tips - Liga Portugal

 by Donal Kearns | in Liga Portugal Prediction

Benfica are the bookmaker’s favourites to claim all three points on Sunday, but anybody who has paid attention to the Primeira Liga this season knows that you can’t underestimate this Braga side. The hosts lead the Primeira Liga during the first half of the season, thanks largely to the goals of striker Dyego Sousa, but the team now look favourites to finish in fourth place unless they can finish the campaign strongly and third placed Sporting slip-up. Braga picked up a comfortable three points away at Feirense, condemning their hosts to their inevitable relegation from the Primeira Liga. Second half goals from Fransérgio and Horta made the final scoreline 2-0, as Braga picked up their third clean sheet in six matches. After a quick start to the match Benfica will have been disappointed to only lead Maritimo at home by a solitary Felix goal, but the league leaders turned up the heat during the second forty-five. Pizzi made it 2-0 just four minutes after the restart, Felix grabbed his second of the game in the sixty-fourth minute. Cervi made it 4-0 in the seventy-first minute and then doubled his tally two minutes from time. The final minute of the match saw Salvio get in on the action and the scoreline end 6-0 to Benfica.
