In the sixth round of the Portuguese Primeira Liga, two matches are scheduled for Monday. In the first of them, Benfica will play at home with Boavista. We bring to your attention the forecast for the upcoming match at Estadio da Luzhe.
Benfica
The Eagles made the best start in the current championship, remaining the only team that has not lost points yet. Although before the international break, the team of Jorge Jesus almost stumbled at home with Tondela, snatching a victory in the last minutes (2: 1). After the matches of the national teams, the Lisbon team defeated Santa Clara away (5:0), and last Wednesday with an away draw with Dynamo Kyiv (0:0) they started at the group stage of the Champions League.
"Boavista"
The Panthers still occupy the seventh place in the Primeira Liga standings. Although they started with a big defeat away from "Gil Vicente" (0:3). But in the next two home matches, Boavista already scored maximum points, having dealt with Pasos de Ferreira (3: 0) and Santa Clara (2:0). In the last two matches, the team of Joao Pedro Sousa was content with draws-on the road with Visela (1: 1) and at home with Portmenense (1: 1).
