THE PREDICTION
Ten points accrued from their last four Primeira Liga fixtures have seen Benfica establish themselves in third-place, now seven points above Sporting Braga and within touching distance of securing a Champions League qualification spot. For bottom of the table Nacional however, five points separate them from 16th-placed Boavista in the relegation playoff spot. Four points from the last nine available to them have given Nacional hope and they will not be afraid to take the game to Benfica at home, knowing that a point does little to aide them in their bid for survival at this point. Unfortunately for them, Benfica boast a vastly superior side and having racked up 16 goals over the course of their last six league matches, their attacking prowess should overwhelm the hosts and lead the visitors to victory here.
