Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 0-2
Benfica
After dropping two points in a 1-1 draw with Casa Pia, Benfica will look to return to winning ways in the Primeira Liga when they take on Chaves on Matchday 10. The Eagles aim to overtake Sporting CP in top position and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-oriented approach in the opening match of Saturday’s program. It has to be noted that boss Roger Schmidt has a full squad to choose from.
Os Valentes, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 5-0 defeat to Vitoria Guimaraes, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the title-chasing visitors. In their last meeting at Estadio Municipal de Chaves Os Valentes defeated the Eagles, meaning that the visitors are hungry for revenge. Chaves defender Ygor Nogueira is banned for the match, which is yet another reason why away win should be considered.
Highlighted Player (Angel di Maria):
Angel Di Maria is a professional footballer who played for Argentine side Rosario Central at the start of his senior career. The left-footed winger is very quick on the ball and he often makes life difficult for opposition defenders. After playing for Benfica between 2007 and 2010, the Argentine superstar signed for Real Madrid on 28 June, 2010 for a fee of €25 million + €11 million in bonuses.
Despite impressing with los Blancos in the 2013/2014 La Liga campaign, the club chiefs decided to sell him to Manchester United on 26 August, 2014. Di Maria was playing below expectations at Old Trafford and he scored three goals in 27 league games for the Red Devils.
In 2015 he moved to Paris Saint-Germain and he scored 10 goals in 29 league appearances for les Parisiens in the 2015/2016 Ligue 1 campaign. In 2014 he won the Champions League trophy with Real Madrid and that is considered the biggest success of his career. Angel Di Maria was born in Rosario on 14 February, 1988.
