Benfica v Sporting Best Bet Double
- Friday 5th December
📈 Benfica v Sporting Form & Stats
Benfica are yet to lose a game in Liga Portugal this term, though this metric is a tad misleading, as Porto and Sporting are really the only threats to them in this division. Jose Mourinho has adapted well to his new role in the dugout, winning eight of his 14 games in charge so far - including each of the last three.
Benfica have drawn three of their six home games in Liga Portugal this term, while Sporting have won all six of their away matches - netting 14 goals in the process and conceding just once.
Benfica have won more games on the road (5) than they have done at home this season (3), which is a record that Mourinho will want to correct quickly to ensure that Benfica keep pace with Porto and Sporting.
Head-to-head meetings between these sides tend to be quite tight, with each of the last five meetings ending in draws, or being edged by the odd goal. We can expect a similarly tight game here, when adding in the context that surrounds the title race in Portugal. It’s also worth exploring card markets here, both league meetings between the sides produced at least five cards.
