FC Porto vs Benfica 31.12.2021

FC Porto will go into this fixture as favourites, given their form in the League. The multiple Portuguese champions remain unbeaten and they remain on course for a title charge.

Benfica are also showing good form but the ghost of their 3-0 loss to Porto the last time they met is still lurking around.

With that at the back of their minds, we expect Benfica to come out fighting. And given the goal scoring form of both sides, we are tipping a 2-2 draw.

Main tip: Correct Score 2-2 (go to tip details)
