The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Friday's Primeira Liga clash between Arouca and Benfica, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Arouca 0-2 Benfica

Arouca's slump in form has seen them drop into the relegation places and they will head into Friday's game seeking that morale-boosting win to spark a fine run of form. However, next up is the stern test of going up against a Benfica side who they have lost to in each of their last five encounters. Looking at the gulf in quality between the squads, we are tipping As Aguias to come away with all three points and extend their winning streak. ​ Read more.
