Moreirense vs Benfica Prediction and Betting Tips 9 September 2026

Moreirense face an uphill task in midweek as they take on an in-form Benfica side after pushing reigning champions Porto all the way in a 2-1 defeat. The hosts have been difficult to beat at home, collecting 2.00 points per game across their last four matches and conceding just 1.00 goal per game. However, Guilherme Liberato is suspended following his sending-off against Porto, leaving Moreirense without one midfield option.

Benfica arrive in outstanding form, riding a five-game winning streak after cruising past Maritimo 3-0 at the weekend. The Eagles have scored 3.30 goals per game across their last 10 matches and boast a 60% away win rate, while averaging 3.00 goals on the road. They are also targeting a fourth consecutive victory over Moreirense. Alexander Bah is doubtful, but Marco Silva has plenty of depth. As before, Greece striker Vangelis Pavlidis will lead the line for the capital club.

Given Benfica's exceptional form and H2H dominance, Away Win seems like a sure bet, alongside Benfica -1.5 and Over 2.5 goals (Benfica’s matches average 4.20 goals, with 56% of H2Hs clearing this line).

This Portugal Primeira Liga match will be played on Wednesday 9 September 2026 at 20:45.
