Sunday's Primeira Liga predictions including Moreirense vs. Benfica

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Sunday's Primeira Liga fixtures, including Moreirense vs. Benfica.


Portimonense vs. Gil Vicente (Sunday, 3.00pm)

Portimonense will host Gil Vicente in the Primeira Liga this weekend with both sides heading into the encounter level with 16 points from 18 matches played.

The hosts have won three of their last five home matches, while the visitors are looking to claim back-to-back league victories on the road for the first time this season.

We say: Portimonense 1-1 Gil Vicente


Both Portimonense and Gil Vicente will be desperate to secure three points and move away from danger but with little to separate the two teams, a score draw could be on the cards in what is expected to be a tight encounter.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or draw.

Santa Clara vs. Braga (Sunday, 5.30pm)

Santa Clara will host Braga in the Primeira Liga on Sunday looking to extend their unbeaten league run to five matches.

Meanwhile, Braga have lost three of their last four away matches in all competitions and were defeated in both of their previous two league encounters against the hosts.

We say: Santa Clara 1-1 Braga


Braga will have one eye on their Europa League tie with Italian side Roma on Thursday but that should not prevent Carvalhal from naming a strong side as they aim to finish this campaign inside the top three. Braga's recent visits to the Estadio de Sao Miguel have been difficult, though, and Sunday's contest against Santa Clara could also prove to be a challenge.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Moreirense vs. Benfica (Sunday, 8.15pm)

Moreirense welcome Benfica to the Parque de Jogos Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas on Sunday, with both sides looking to build on consecutive wins.

The hosts beat strugglers Farense away from home on Monday, while Benfica recorded a 3-1 victory over Estoril Praia in the first leg of their Taca de Portugal semi-final tie on Thursday evening.

We say: Moreirense 0-2 Benfica


We can see As Aguias continuing their return to form with another win in this game, seeing off a resilient Moreirense outfit.

While the hosts will have some confidence of their own coming into this match, we expect them to fall just short against Jesus's side, with the dangerous pairing of Seferovic and Nunez causing Seabra's side major problems.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.
