Last season, Benfica finished second with 80 points, which was ten points behind first-placed Sporting CP. This season, a mixed start could see them once again play second fiddle as they currentlܫy occupy third place and are five points behind their opponents in this impending encounter who occupy second place. 

In what was one of their worst performances to date, the Eagles found themselves on the receiving end of a convincing 1-0 defeat ag🌸ainst Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday. However, they'll want to regain their momentum by securing a comfortable win at home. Their last league match saw them beat Farense 2-1 away from home.

꧃Similar to their opponents, FC Porto wereಌ also unsuccessful in Europe, as they lost 2-1 against Italy's Lazio in the Europa League. This left them in 22nd in the 36-team table and are just five points behind the last knockout spot.

The Dragons have been impressive this season and could be considered a dominant force heading into this clash. A commanding 4-0 win over Estoril Praia at home extended their winning streak in the league to six m✨atches. It goes without saying that they, too, are riding high and can't be underestimated. 

Goals have been the main recipe in O Clássico, with five of the last eight enꦓcounters witnessing a total of over 2.5 goals being scored. It won't come as a surprise if this turns out to be a high-scoring affair between two sides that have been trigger happy in the final third.

• Goals - Over 2.5 for 1.95
• Both Teams To Score - Yes for 1.75
• Full-time Result - Draw for 3.50
