Boavista vs Benfica Predictions

• Benfica have four wins in their last five games.
• Boavista are winless in four (D2, L2).
• Boavista have failed to score in three of their last five games.

Improving Benfica head to Boavista

Benfica look to be clicking into gear after a slow start to the season and they should be able to continue their strong form with a win at Boavista on Monday.

The Lisbon giants have won four of their last five games, including an impressive midweek Champions League victory at Crvena zvezda in midweek, with one draw.

Benfica are facing an out of sorts Boavista side who are now winless in four games and have just five points to show from as many games in this competition.

The visitors are a short price to win so the best option here could be backing a Benfica win to nil. As Águias managed back-to-back clean sheets in wins over Casa Pia and Estrela in August but have conceded in each of their last three games. However, they are facing a Boavista side who have scored just three goals in the league and have drawn blanks in three of their last five games.

Boasvista have at least been solid defensively so Benfica may not run away with this one and a 2-0 victory for the visitors appeals.

Kerem Aktürkoğlu has made a fantastic start to his Benfica career as he scored on his debut against Santa Clara and followed that up with a European strike in Belgrade. He hit a hat-trick against Iceland for Turkiye during the international break so has five goals in his last three games for club and country, and he looks a good contender for an anytime goal.
