Head to the Stade de la Luz for a classic of Portuguese football between Benfica Lisbon and Sporting Braga, a duel counting for the round of 16 of the Portuguese Cup. Favorite on paper, the group coached by Roger Schmidt will still have to put in a serious performance from the kick-off because their evening opponent must be taken seriously. For this, the Red Eagles can draw inspiration from their excellent last outings where the results were only positive at the end of 2024 but also at the beginning of 2024. Winners by three goals once morest the trio Arouca – Famalicao – AVS, the Red Devils have all the cards in hand to win at home on Wednesday evening.
As we said, a little above, the locals will have to be careful from the first minutes of the game since the men led by Artur Jorge have just signed three games in a row without the slightest defeat. Certainly, the series is less impressive than the Lisbon team but that must count in the story of this meeting. Thanks to two consecutive away victories on red and green soil, the Minhotos seem to have what it takes in store to deceive a team that is almost invincible at the time of writing! Word of advice, without a defense prepared to suffer, defeat may be the end result for the visitors.
