Benfica and Famalicao will meet again in the Primeira Liga Week 15 at the Estádio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica Stadium, da Luz Lisboa Friday, December 29, 2023. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
Benfica, who are in second place with 33 points after 14 games, hope to end 2023 at the top of the league table. Meanwhile, Famalicao, who is in seventh position with 18 points, is trying to end a winless streak in their last four league matches.
Benfica has shown impressive performance at the end of this year. They managed to advance to the Taca da Liga semi-finals with a 4-1 win over AVS last week. This win was followed by an important 1-0 win over Braga in the league and an even more important 3-1 win over Salzburg, which kept them in the Europa League competition, despite failing to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League.
Benfica is now on a three-game winning streak and has not lost in its last seven matches in all competitions, including five wins and two draws. At home, they are unbeaten in six league games this season.
On the other hand, Famalicao will enter Friday night’s match looking to end a winless streak in four league games, which includes two defeats and two consecutive 1-1 draws against Portimonense and Estoril Praia.
After picking up a 2-1 win over Braga in their first away game of the season, Fama had only managed to win one of their next nine games leading up to this match, where they were beaten 2-0 by Benfica at the Taca de Portugal at the end of November.
Benfica arrived with capital full of confidence after achieving three important wins in a row. Roger Schmidt’s team is expected to secure points in this match. Meanwhile, Famalicao, although they are big underdogs, will be hoping for a good result that could give their team a much-needed confidence boost ahead of a busy fixture list in January.
Schmidt is expected to field a fairly similar line-up to the last game against AVS, although Nicolas Otamendi is likely to return in defence. Meanwhile, Famalicao is expected to remain unchanged for the upcoming match, with Jhonder Cadiz leading the line at the Estadio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica.
