It is remarkable that Estoril remain in one of the automatic relegation positions, considering they have scored more goals than Porto and just one fewer than Sporting. This is because they have been on the wrong side of three interesting encounters already this campaign on the road, losing 4-3 at Arouca, 5-3 at Gil Vicente and 3-2 at Vitoria Guimaraes last time out.
All the four points Estoril has, have come at home from defeating Rio Ave and drawing with Vizela. They must hope that their goal-scoring abilities can tackle the big sides they’ll face in the coming weeks. But, their shaky defence must be tightened, unless clubs like Benfica will take advantage of it. They already have a bad record at home to Benfica, losing 11 of the 13 matches.

Beginning the Champions League with a series of defeats was not what Benfica imagined, but now they have to turn their fate around and advance from a challenging group. Although they fought well in their loss to Red Bull Salzburg with 10 men on matchday one, Benfica were helpless at San Siro on Tuesday and got a well-deserved beating by Inter Milan.
Schmidt will be happy that his club left Italy with only a 1-0 defeat, especially since Inter Milan could have delivered five or six goals for good measure. It was disappointing given that Benfica would have entered the fixture in high spirits after their 1-0 win in O Classico against Porto last week.
MatchPlug Prediction For Estoril VS Benfica
Benfica has been ruthless in the league since they lost to Boavista on the opening day and should have enough strength to subdue their hosts. Estoril has been in good goalscoring form, but often give up too many goals, and their guest will want to exploit this weakness.
Final Prediction: Benfica Moneyline.
