Pevidem vs Benfica Prediction and Betting Tips | October 19th 2024

Pevidem welcome Benfica to Parque Joaquim de Almeida Freitas for a Taca de Portugal clash on Saturday (October 19th). The home side are coming into the game on the back of a goalless draw away to Brito in the Campeonato de Portugal.

They will now turn their focus back to the cup and booked their spot at this stage with a 2-1 extra-time home win over Maritimo in the last round.

Benfica, meanwhile, received a bye to this stage of the cup. They will be aiming to build on the comfortable 4-0 thrashing they handed out to Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League.

Kerem Akturkoglu put them ahead in the 13th minute while Angel di Maria doubled their lead from the spot seven minutes into the second half. Alexander Bah and Orkun Kokcu scored in the final 15 minutes to help their side claim all three points.

Pevidem vs Benfica Prediction

Pevidem impressively eliminated second division outfit Maritimo in the last round. However, they will be facing a significantly sterner test in this round.

Benfica, for their part have surprisingly not triumphed in the cup since 2017. The Eagles will be full of confidence, having won their last five games on the bounce, scoring at least two goals in each game. The most recent of those came against Atletico Madrid and the manner of their win against Diego Simeone's side will give them a boost in their title aspirations this season.

A game between a fourth division outfit and one of the biggest Portuguese sides should ostensibly only go one way. We are backing the visitors to claim a comfortable victory in addition to a clean sheet.
