Nacional Madeira vs Benfica Lisbon Prediction & Betting Tips - Liga Portugal
by Thobelani Moyo | in Liga Portugal Predictions
In an attempt to distance themselves away from the relegation zone, Nacional Madeira will play host to title contenders Benfica at the Estadio da Madeira in the postponed eighth round of Liga Portugal. Nacional is 14th in the standings and one point ahead of the drop zone, while Benfica is third and four points behind the top spot. Below is our match prediction.
Nacional Madeira lifted themselves out of the relegation zone after a narrow 1-0 home win against Moreirense on Saturday.
With two wins in nine league matches (D2, L5), the Alvinegros have bagged eight measly points from a possible 27, with bottom-placed Farense collecting more points during this run (9).
Securing their second consecutive league win could be challenging given their struggles in this fixture. They are winless in their last 17 matches against Benfica in Liga Portugal recording 15 losses and two draws.
On the other hand, Benfica will likely approach this match with caution. The Eagles paid a heavy price for their boastful last time out against AVS Futebol SAD, playing out a 1-1 draw that ended their eight-match winning streak in the league.
The good news, however, is that As Águias have avoided defeat in their last 12 matches, recording ten wins and two draws. They should be able to maintain this impressive run, having secured seven consecutive away wins in this fixture.

Our Nacional Madeira vs Benfica Lisbon Prediction
It's only a matter of time before Benfica's impressive form sees a decline following their poor performance against AVS Futebol SAD over the weekend.
However, the good news is that they have been presented with an opportunity to get back to winning ways as they take on a side located in the bottom five in the standings. Their record against teams in this bracket has been nothing short of impressive (W3, D1), pointing towards a comfortable win. Our Nacional Madeira v Benfica prediction is for Benfica to win and under 3.5 goals.
