We said: Benfica 3-0 Belenenses

 Buoyed by their victory over Portimonense, Belenenses will head into Saturday with renewed confidence as they look to move out of the relegation zone. However, looking at past results between the sides, Benfica are clear favourites to come out victorious this weekend having won each of their last six encounters with O Belem. We predict the hosts will cruise to all three points and set the tone for their upcoming game against Liverpool. Read more.
