FC Vizela vs Benfica Lisbon Prediction & Betting Tips - Liga Portugal
by Joseph King | in Liga Portugal Predictions
After a brutal 3-2 defeat to start the season for Benfica, the defending champions have now ripped off three consecutive wins in the league. The winning streak has lifted the Eagles up to fourth in the standings with nine points from their first four fixtures. They trail leaders Boavista, Porto and Sporting by just a single point. The champions suffered a blow in the transfer market as they lost talented young Goncalo Ramos to French giants PSG. However, Benfica have been able to pick up right where they left off after leading the league in scoring last season. Benfica were strong on the road last season but certainly not invincible. They finished with 13 wins, two draws and two defeats with their defensive record the aspect that stood out the most. They conceded only eight away goals in 17 trips last campaign while still managing to score an average of two goals a game for themselves. Roger Schmidt’s men are coming off a dominant 4-0 home victory over Vitoria in their last appearance.
Vizela got their first win of the season just before the international break with a 1-0 home victory over Gil Vicente. Prior to that, the Vizelenses had managed only a single point from the first three matches. Pablo Villar’s men are coming off an encouraging 2022/23 campaign which saw Vizela build upon their 14th-place finish from two seasons ago to finish 11th. After winning promotion in 2020/21, the goal will be to secure a fourth consecutive season in the top flight while working towards another mid table finish. They’ll be up against it here, however, especially considering that Benfica look to be gaining steam. Vizela will hope that the upcoming start of the visitors’ Champions League campaign will provide sufficient distraction that might see their performance levels drop on Saturday.Limited Offer.

Our FC Vizela vs Benfica Lisbon Prediction
While spirits will likely be high around the Vizela camp after getting their first win on the board, they’re likely going to be brought swiftly back down to Earth. Benfica were in fine form in their last game, although it was made much easier by playing against 10 men for the majority of the contest. Even prior to that the Eagles managed three goals on the road, accumulating a 2.63 expected goals tally with four clear cut chances registered. We like them to knock a few past Vizela and secure a comfortable three points ahead of their Champions League opener. Our Vizela vs Benfica prediction is for Benfica to win on the -1 European handicap.
