Half of the best Portuguese league is fighting to avoid relegation. Among them is Farense, too. Jose Mota's team has four points more than the relegation playoff zone, so they probably need a few more wins to stay in the league. Farense's form is far from ideal, as they won only one of the last 11 matches. In the previous game, Farense played 1-1 on the road against Vitoria Guimaraes. The home side had 63% ball possession and 24 shots, but guests still picked up another valuable point.
In their club history, Benfica have won 38 national league titles so far. It is unlikely that they will add another this season as Roger Schmidt's team is seven points behind the league leader Sporting CP. Benfica won two of the last three matches in all competitions. In the previous game, they lost on the road after penalties in the Europa League quarterfinal against Marseille. Benfica had a lead from the first leg, but the home side did enough to push the game to the penalty shootout, where Marseille had more calmness, so Schmidt's team finished their journey in that competition.
Farense vs Benfica pick: Under 3.5 goals
Farense scored only four goals in the last four home matches. On the other hand, Benfica scored only three goals in the previous four games away from home. Under 3.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.

Farense team news
In the previous round, Farense's captain, Fabricio Isidoro, was suspended. The midfielder appeared in 27 Liga Portugal matches this season, so we should anticipate him to return to the starting lineup. On the other hand, Luiz Felipe remains out due to injury.
