Team News

Benfica
Vitoria de Guimaraes
  • Di María is enjoying a delightful run of form and will be full of beans here.
  • Either Rollheiser or Leandro Barreiro will replace the now suspended Kokcu on Saturday.
  • Manu Silva will push for a start after being a standout performer against Gil Vicente.
  • Borevkovic went off injured last time out and is a doubt here. Jorge Ferandes will replace him if he fails to recover.

Prediction

  • Benfica go into this game full of confidence after four consecutive wins and certain that they can put pressure on leaders Sporting with a victory. Bruno Lage's men have improved a lot since the arrival of their new coach.
  • Vitória SC achieved their most robust victory of the season in the Primeira Liga by beating Gil Vicente, which shows that the team is prepared to deal with demanding match cycles (they've already played 25 games all season) and tough challenges like the ones they'll face at the Estádio da Luz.
  • The visitors won't make it easy for Benfica to take three points, but given the confidence of Bruno Lage's men, combined with the home factor and their quality, an home win is to be expected.
