Monday's Primeira Liga predictions including Boavista vs. Benfica

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Primeira Liga fixtures, including Boavista vs. Benfica.


Moreirense vs. Porto (Monday, 6.45pm)

Having lost out in last season's title race and kicked off this term with defeat in the Supertaca, Porto aim for a winning start to their Liga Portugal campaign on Monday, when they meet Moreirense.

Though they lifted the Taca de Portugal for a 19th time in June, the Lions were pipped to top spot by Benfica, who beat them again in Wednesday's curtain-raiser; their hosts, meanwhile, are back in the top flight after just one year away.

We say: Moreirense 1-3 Porto


After the upheaval of losing their promotion-winning manager and several players during the off-season, Moreirense may have lost some momentum from their exceptional 2022-23 campaign. Despite home advantage, the gulf in class to a well-drilled Porto side should be apparent on Monday evening, so the visitors are set to secure maximum points.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.

Boavista vs. Benfica (Monday, 8.45pm)

After kicking off the new season with success in the Supertaca, reigning champions Benfica begin the defence of their Liga Portugal crown on Monday, when they visit Boavista.

The teams convene at Estadio do Bessa with the Eagles aiming to build on last week's win over Porto, while their hosts - who finished ninth last term - have already exited this year's Taca da Liga.

We say: Boavista 0-2 Benfica


Though they have been forced to make changes to a title-winning squad, Benfica still look strong enough to retain their status as Portugal's top dogs this year and they should start their Liga campaign with a win. Boavista lack a major goal threat and surely cannot defy their visitors' fearsome front line for a full 90 minutes.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.
