Six Straight for Benfica
Benfica have found their groove under Marco Silva, winning six straight matches including a 7-0 win at Casa Pia where Vangelis Pavlidis hit a hat-trick.
The Eagles settled for a 2-1 victory against Estoril despite having 66% possession, 25-4 shots and 2.03-0.36 xG.
João Palhinha has started the previous two games and it’s no surprise that Benfica haven’t conceded. Leandro Barreiro scored the opening two goals in a 3-0 win at Maritimo.
Silva’s side won 4-0 at Moreirense on Wednesday, never in doubt after ending with 74% possession, 9-1 shots on target and 2.99-0.38 xG. Andreas Schjelderup got the start and produced a goal and two assists.
The manager was pleased with the win: “It was a completely deserved victory, we are satisfied with a very good first half. The team maintained intensity and our identity was very present”
Goal Drought for Gil Vicente
Gil Vicente had a strong start, winning their opening two matches at home.
Héctor Hernández coming off the bench to net a late penalty in a 1-0 win over Rio Ave and scored again in a 2-0 victory against Casa Pia.
Luís Pinto’s side have been shut down in their previous two games, starting with a 0-0 draw at Familacao where they registered one shot on target and 0.27 xG.
The Barcelos were unlucky to lose 1-0 against Academico Viseu last time out. They conceded in the 4th minute and couldn’t find an equaliser, ending with 33-6 shots and 1.88-0.34 xG.
Pinto pointed to the statistics after the defeat: “Sometimes you just have to look at the data and realise that the outcome could have been different. I want to believe that if we have most of our games, we'll be happy.”
“We conceded a goal after just four minutes, the first time that's happened this season, and it shook us a bit.”
