Benfica to win 2-1
Benfica have struggled for form in recent weeks and four consecutive matches without a victory is something that the club is certainly not experiencing quite regularly. Estoril are likely to push Benfica considering the poor form, but they lack the quality to be able to pick up wins against the table leaders. This Benfica vs Estoril prediction would go with a victory for Benfica by narrow margins.
Both outfits to score
It has been a difficult period for Benfica who have not scored a lot of goals, while the defence has looked disjointed in recent weeks. After conceding eight goals in the last four matches, Benfica’s defence is not in a great shape and Estoril might just be able to get something out of the game.

Benfica vs Estoril: Team News, Line-Ups, & Form Analysis
Benfica:
Benfica have gone through a very bad run of results over the last few weeks which have seriously threatened their ability to beat Porto for the league title. The losses against Porto and Chaves have turned around the title race, which seemed comfortably in the bank for Benfica not too long ago. The table leaders have five matches to hold on to their four-point advantage of the Porto with three of those games away from home. Julian Draxler and Alexander Bah are unavailable from the Benfica vs Estoril lineups.
Predicted Line-Up:
Odisseas Vlachodimos, Gilberto, Nicolas Otamendi, António Silva, Alejandro Grimaldo, Fredrik Aursnes, Chiquinho, David Neres Campos, Rafa Silva, Joao Mario, Goncalo Ramos
Estoril:
Estoril remain gripped with the fear of relegation after the latest set of results. The club only have a three-point advantage over Maritimo, who have suddenly started picking up points. The role of momentum will be crucial in the relegation race and manager Ricardo Soares will be aware of the same as he heads into the game against Benfica looking for only his third win against the club. Tiago Gouveia will be ineligible for the match while Lucas Áfrico remains on the treatment table.
Predicted Line-Up:
Leite Figueira, Tiago Santos, Bernardo Vital, Pedro Alvaro, Joaozinho, Joao Marques, Mor Ndiaye, Joao Carvalho, Carlos Eduardo, Alejandro Marqués, Tiago Gouveia
Player to Watch: Nicolás Otamendi
Nicolás Otamendi has been holding the Benfica defence quite strongly. The club’s offensive players have not been in the best shape over the last few games. Otamendi is likely to take precedence in the next few weeks, as Benfica try to recover from a poor run of form.
Starting Line-Ups:
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
