On Wednesday, August 09, 2023 Benfica will compete against FC Porto in the Finals of the 2023 Portuguese Super Cup match. Watch here, Benfica vs FC Porto live streaming, preview and how to watch it.
Benfica and Porto will face off in the 2023 Portuguese Super Cup clash, the opening match for the new season in the land of the samba dancers. This match will take place on Wednesday 9/8/2023 at the neutral stadium Estadio Municipal de Aveiro.
This is an opportunity for two of Portugal’s best teams to claim their first title of the year, and also a chance for them to test their strength before entering the new season. Benfica are the current national champions, having beaten Porto by just 2 points the previous season. Porto, on the other hand, are national cup winners, and also the most successful team in the Portuguese Super Cup with 23 wins.
In the history of meetings, Porto is superior by winning 8 of the last 11 meetings with Benfica. However, Porto’s only defeat came last season, when Benfica clinched the national title. It is proof that Benfica has made real progress and can compete with Porto in all competitions.
Benfica has had quite a successful summer winning 4 of 6 friendlies, including an impressive 4-0 win over France’s Marseille. However, Benfica will also have to pay a heavy price by losing key striker Goncalo Ramos, who has moved to PSG on loan with an option to buy.
Ramos was Benfica’s number 1 scorer last season with 27 goals in all competitions. For this season, Benfica will now have to rely on other stars such as Pizzi, Rafa Silva or Haris Seferovic, and of course former Juventus player, Angel Di Maria, to create pressure on Porto’s goal.
Porto, on the other hand, have had a low profile summer winning just 2 of 5 friendlies, including AS Roma’s 1-0 loss to Italy.
FC Porto has maintained stability in its squad, not losing any pillars, and even adding a few new players like Nico Gonzalez from Barca or Fran Navarro from Gil Vicente. Notably, Porto still has Mehdi Taremi, who won the title of “Portuguese League Goal King” last season with 25 goals. Porto also has many other quality players such as Sergio Oliveira, Luis Diaz or Pepe.
The Portuguese Super Cup match will be a fierce battle between the two giants of Portuguese football. Benfica is considered the favorite with 1 in 4 odds, as they have proven their high scoring ability in friendlies this summer (at least 2 goals/game).
Meanwhile, Porto is also not a team that is easily silenced. Therefore, this match is expected to have many goals scored.
