Saturday's Primeira Liga predictions including Farense vs. Benfica

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


Rio Ave vs. Casa Pia (Saturday, 3.30pm)

Two sides who picked up contrasting results last time out lock horns on Saturday as Rio Ave play host to Casa Pia at the Estadio dos Arcos on Saturday.

The Vilacondenses head into the weekend unbeaten at home in the league this year, having picked up six wins and seven draws from their 13 games, and will head into the weekend looking to extend this impressive streak.

We say: Rio Ave 1-1 Casa Pia


While Rio Ave have struggled to get going in recent weeks, they will be backing themselves to find their feet this weekend as they return home, where they are yet to suffer defeat in the league this season.

However, Casa Pia have put together a fine run of results of late and we predict they will do just enough to force a share of the spoils at the Estadio dos Arcos.

Farense vs. Benfica (Saturday, 6.00pm)

French off the back of reaching the Taca da Liga semi-finals, Benfica return to action in the Primeira Liga when they visit the Estadio de Sao Luis to face SC Farense on Saturday.

Having failed to win the last six meetings between the two sides, the Leoes de Faro will head into the weekend seeking to get one over the visitors and pull clear of the bottom of the league standings.

We say: SC Farense 0-3 Benfica


Benfica had to dig deep to see off a resilient Santa Clara side in their midweek up outing and will head into Saturday's clash with sky-high confidence. Farense have scored just three league goals this season and find themselves rooted to the bottom of the table after a poor start to the campaign, and while they will be looking to find their feet this weekend, we fancy As Aguias to come away with a comfortable victory.

Gil Vicente vs. Boavista (Saturday, 8.30pm)

Gil Vicente will be looking to make it five straight games without defeat on home turf this season when they play host to Boavista in round 10 of the Primeira Liga on Saturday.  

Os Axadrezados journey to the Estadio Cidade de Barcelos where they have lost each of their last three visitors since August 2021 and will head into the weekend looking to end this poor run.

We say: Gil Vicente 2-1 Boavista


Off the back of a narrow defeat against Santa Clara, Gil Vicente will head into the weekend looking to bounce back and maintain their fine run of results on home turf.

Boavista's form is currently nothing to write home about, and while we expect them to put up a fight at the Estadio Cidade de Barcelos, we fancy the home side to come out on top.
