Defensive issues plaguing Benfica

Benfica lost 1-0 at Inter Milan in midweek, their latest away trip without a clean sheet. The Portuguese champions have conceded in each of their five away trips so far this term. The visitors have now conceded in sevens straight away games dating back to last term.

Benfica have conceded in seven of their last eight Primeira Liga trips, while they’ve seen both teams score in five of their last six visits to Estoril. With the hosts coming into this in great scoring form, this clash looks set for more goals, too.

Another thriller for Estoril?

Estoril have certainly been delivering entertainment this term, with both teams scoring in each of their last six games. They’ve seen a total of 32 goals scored across their first seven matches, finding the net twice per game on average. However, they’ve conceded 18 times, losing five of those seven matches.

Benfica have won their last six matches in the league and they’ve won nine of their last 10 meetings with Estoril across all competitions, so back the visitors to win and concede.
