Boavista almost dropped out of the league last season, even though they had the same number of points as Portimonense, due to a better goal difference they finished one position above the line. There is little chance that Boavista will have a much better ranking this season. After 5 matches played, they are in 13th place in the table and have won only once. In the previous two rounds, they played draws against Estrela and Estoril

Benfica had an excellent debut on the big stage of the Champions League. At the Rajko Mitic stadium, they beat Red Star 2-1 and thus started the campaign for the knockout stage in an excellent way. As for the Portuguese national championship, after 5 rounds played, they are in 6th place with 10 points, but it is known that this team is aiming for the highest position in this competition.

Boavista vs Benfica pick: BENFICA TO WIN AND COVER AH -1.5

The incomparable difference in quality is on the side of the visiting team. However, it has happened in the past that Boavista stopped Benfica, especially in this stadium. The previous season, Boavista won 3-2. Benfica does not have the luxury of achieving another bad result at the beginning of the season and stay far behind its rivals from the top. They should take this match very seriously and win by a comfortable margin. Benfica to cover AH -1.5
