Arouca vs Benfica Predictions

• Benfica have won their last five visits to Arouca
• The visitors have won 12 of their last 14 matches in all competitions
• Arouca have scored in four of their last five home games

Benfica to maintain winning run

Benfica have won 12 of their last 14 games after a 3-2 victory at Monaco in midweek, which boosted their chances of progressing from the Champions League. They’ve also pushed into the title race with six wins on the bounce in the Primeira Liga ahead of this visit to Arouca.

The hosts have lost three of their last four matches, but they’ve scored in each defeat. They’ve lost each of their clashes with the top six so far, including three defeats at home.

Arouca have scored in four of their last five home matches, so they should trouble a Benfica side who have conceded in seven of their last eight trips.

The Eagles have won their last five visits to Arouca, but with their lack of clean sheets an away win and both teams to score appeals.
