Prediction: 1-2
Benfica
Benfica will look to kick off the new Primeira Liga campaign in style when they face Moreirense at Parque Joaquim de Almeida Freitas on Saturday afternoon. The club chiefs did well to sign Gent attacker Roman Yaremchuk in the summer transfer window. The Ukrainian attacker is widely expected to make his Primeira Liga debut against Moreirense, while Pedrinho joined Shakhtar Donetsk.
Anyhow, head coach Jorge Jesus has a number of top-class players to choose from. Os verdes e brancos aim to bounce back from the Portuguese Cup defeat to Penafiel. Moreirense did well to hold Benfica to a 1-1 draw in their last meeting at the venue, but seeing that the Eagles were producing fine displays in pre-season, we believe that punters can find value in betting on the capital club. A man to watch in the home team will be Rafael Martins, who scored seven goals in the Portuguese top flight last term.
Highlighted Player (Pedro Nuno ):
After spending his youth career at the likes of Buarcos, Naval, Benfica, and Academica, Pedro Nuno continued playing for the Briosa at the senior level. Pedro Nuno scored five goals in 25 appearances for Academica in the league, which persuaded Benfica chiefs to sign him on November 28, 2016.
The Portuguese midfielder, though, was immediately sent on loan to Tondela, where he scored four goals in 45 appearances for the club. In 2018 Pedro Nuno moved to Moreirense, and he has been playing for Os verdes e brancos ever since. He made his Primeira Liga debut with Moreirense on August 11, 2019, in a 3-1 away loss to Sporting Braga.
Pedro Nuno was born in Buarcos, Portugal, on January 13, 1995, and he wears the number 27 jersey at Moreirense. His primary position is left winger, but he is used as both second striker and attacking midfielder. Pedro Nuno has yet to make his debut with the Portugal senior team.
Highlighted Team (Benfica):
Member of the ‘Big Three’ clubs in Portugal alongside FC Porto and CP Sporting, Sport Lisboa e Benfica are the football club that has never been relegated from the Primeira Liga. The club is nicknamed Aguias because of the Eagle symbol atop the club’s crest. Benfica play their home games at the Estadio da Luz which replaced the original one in 2003 and which boasts the capacity of more than 64,000. Arguably the most successful club in Portugal, Benfica have won a record of 35 Primeira Liga titles and also a record 25 Taca de Liga and 7 Taca da Liga trophies.
Two-time European Cup winners, Benfica are the club known for their diligent work with youth players, many of which went on to make great careers abroad. The most prominent players to wear a Benfica shirt are legendary Eusebio, Manuel Bento, Jorge Tavares and most recently Javier Saviola, Nuno Gomes, David Luiz and Angel Di Maria.
