Estrela Amadora Benfica betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This game comes just four days after the grueling match in Turin. It's only natural that Bruno Lage will make some changes to ease the wear and tear on the team. Estrela has already proved that it's difficult to change the way they play, even against the so-called “big” teams. So it's only natural that Benfica continue to give a good response and manage to win, but in a game where the scoreboard won't be very busy. Benfica win and less than 4.5 goals is still 1.62, so it's a good bet.

and Benfica meet at Estádio José Gomes, in a match for the 20th round of the Primeira Liga. Benfica got a home win by (1‑0), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 24‑08‑2024. The recent head‑to‑head record favours the away team, since they have a record of 5 wins in the last 5 matches. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 23‑11‑2024, and ended in a (7‑0) win by Benfica. Although this is a match between 16th and 2nd of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 13th best in home matches and the 4th best in away matches.

Analysis Estrela Amadora

After 4 wins, 5 draws and 10 losses, the home team is in the 16th position, havinf won 17 points so far. In the last match, they have tied in an away match against Famalicão by (0‑0), after in the previous match they have lost (0‑1) at home, against Sporting Braga. This is a team that usually plays better at home, where they have won 14 points, against only 3 points in away matches. For the league, won 14 points out of 30 possible points, after 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses in the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 4 of the last 19 matches for the Primeira Liga, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 3 of those 4 matches and have held on to the lead in 3. They have conceded the first goal in 14 of their 19 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Estrela's team enters this 20th round of the Portuguese League in the place that means they can play-off for relegation. The tricolor team has 17 points and is one point behind AVS, the last team in a “safe place”. Without a win in four consecutive games, Estrela were held to a goalless draw against Famalicão last time out. Although it's not a negative result, the truth is that Estrela are still a long way short of what was expected this season. The signings haven't reached the expected level, especially players with a history in the Premier League, who were expected to bring not only experience but also high quality. Now, in round 20 against Benfica, Estrela need to score, otherwise they could fall into the relegation zone if Farense win their game.


Confirmed Lineup: Marko Gudžulić, Issiar Dramé, Nilton, Francisco Ferreira, Diogo Martins Travassos, Rúben Lima, Amine Oudrhiri Idrissi, Manuel Keliano, Leonel Bucca, Chico Banza, Rodrigo Pinho.
Coach: R. Moutinho Chéu.

Analysis Benfica

The away team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 41 points won, after 13 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Famalicão, by (4‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Casa Pia, by (3‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 14 points in away matches and 27 at their stadium, with 31 goals scored and 5 conceded at home, against 12 goals scored and 9 conceded in away matches. In their last match, for the UEFA Champions League, they got an away win against Juventus by (0‑2). In the last 9 away league matches Benfica has a record of 4 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 14 points out of 27 possible. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 8 of the last 9 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 19 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times but have turned the score around in 3. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 8 of their 20 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

The Benfica team continues to go through a very troubled phase. They're already six points behind leaders Sporting after the defeat against Casa Pia. The coach is also feeling the pressure from the fans, and during the week he came out to clarify the controversial words he said to his players. Expectations were therefore high to see how the team would react in the big game in Turin. The reaction couldn't have been better and, in a way, the players proved they were on the coach's side. Although it's a very important victory, the truth is that it's only one game, and it will be of little or no use in terms of peace of mind if Benfica don't win this match at Estrela.


Confirmed Lineup: Anatolii Trubin, Álvaro Fernández, Tomás Araújo, Nicolás Otamendi, António Silva, Manuel Jorge Silva, Orkun Kökçü, Fredrik Aursnes, Vangelis Pavlidis, Ángel Di María, Muhammed Aktürkoğlu.
Coach: R. Schmidt.
