Having lost just three points this season, Benfica continue to sit tight at the top of the Portuguese Primeira Liga, where they are followed by next opponents Porto, who are seven points behind. The two teams meet at the Estádio do Dragão in their twentieth match of the season. Last season, Benfica beat Porto in both rounds of the tournament but the dragons won the first leg meeting this campaign and will be looking for full revenge this weekend. Porto go into this match after a 4-0 win at Vitoria Setubol, which became their second consecutive league win. Jesus Corona, Alex Telles, Tiquinho Soares and Luis Diaz were the scorers in the match. At home, Porto are playing fairly well and have won five of their last six matches in all competitions. Visitors Benfica beat Belenenses 3-2 in their most recent match, where Carlos Vinicius, Adel Taarabt and Chiquinho scored the goals. This was after the team had beaten Pacos de Ferreira and Sporting Lisbon on 2-0 scorelines. On the road, Benfica have won four times and drawn twice in six games. Three of the wins were without conceding a goal. This is going to be an exciting match to watch and for insurance purposes we are going to back a goal count selection.
Our bet explained
- Porto have won five times in six home matches.
- Benfica have won four of six away matches.
- Porto won the opening leg 2-0

Our Porto Benfica Lisbon tip
The stakes are high for both teams and we know that they will each work hard to walk out the winners. The first half will be especially fast paced with the second half being slightly relaxed. But goals will be scored and we expect a minimum of three.
