Benfica vs Famalicao Preview


Famalicao have scored in all four matches under new manager Hugo Oliveira. That trend can continue in Lisbon, but Benfica’s attack can earn the Eagles all three points.

Benfica Form


Benfica ended the year with a 1-0 defeat to Sporting CP in the Lisbon derby. They returned to action with a 2-1 loss against Braga, down 2-0 down at half-time but unable to capitalise on a 21-6 shot count.

The Eagles got their revenge against Braga in the League Cup semi-finals, Angel Di Maria scoring twice in a 3-0 victory. They beat Sporting CP in a penalty shootout to claim the title, the game ending 1-1 after 90 minutes.

Bruno Lage’s side are coming off a come from behind 3-1 win at Farense in the Portuguese Cup. Down 1-0 early on, Andreas Schjelderup, Arthur Cabral and Alexander Bah scored in the space of five minutes to reach the quarter-finals.

Benfica Team News


Winger Tiago Gouveia remains out injured and Renato Sanches is on the treatment table once more.

Angel Di Maria came off in the first half in Faro and is unlikely to feature here as Lage looks forward to Barcelona.

Benfica Predicted Line Up


I am expecting António Silva and Leandro Barreiro to make way for Tomás Araújo and Orkun Kökçü, Aktürkoglu to replace Di Maria out wide.

Trubin, Bah, Araujo, Otamendi, Carreras, Kokcu, Florentino, Aursnes, Schjelderup, Cabral, Akturkoglu

Famalicao Form


Famalicao haven’t won in their previous eight games. Armando Evangelista was sacked in December and replaced by former Fulham assistant manager Hugo Oliveira.

Oliveira’s first outing resulted in a 3-3 draw in Braga. They took a 2-0 and 3-1 lead before conceding the equaliser in the 93rd minute.

Famalicao returned home where they had 74% possession in a 2-1 defeat against Farense. They then lost 2-1 to Santa Clara, once again with the majority of the ball alongside 18-8 shots but wasteful up front.

Famalicao started they year with a 1-1 draw at Casa Pia where Oscar Aranda bagged his fifth goal in eight games. They had 14-3 shots on target, wingers Gil Dias and Sorriso with four shots each. 

Famalicao Team News


Ivan Zlobin and Yassir Zabiri remain out injured.

Oscar Aranda has scored five goals in his previous eight appearances.

Famalicao Predicted Line Up


Calegari competes with Rodrigo Pinheiro for the right-back spot. I don't expect any other changes from Oliveira.

Carevic, Pinheiro, de Haas, Mihaj, Soares, van de Looi, Topic, Dias, Sa, Sorriso, Aranda

Verdict

Famalicao have seen BTTS in seven straight games which can continue in Lisbon. Benfica won 3-1 in their last match with the Eagles to repeat the feat at Estadio da Luz.
