Benfica and Sporting face each other this Friday, at 8:15 pm, at Estádio da Luz, for the 13th round of the championship. The two clubs are separated by three points, with an advantage for the ‘lions’, who occupy second place, behind leader FC Porto.
Pedro Fatela, SIC commentator, analyzes the strengths of the two teams for the Lisbon derby, in a duel that “could have an important psychological impact” for the rest of the championship.
“Sporting is probably in better shape, they have a greater ability to get closer to the goal and score goals. They are a bit of a favorite, but it’s good to remember that the game is in Luz and Benfica has a coach who will probably tie the game together, taking it to the strategy component”, highlights Pedro Fatela.
