Today, Sporting CP want to be the leader by winning. Their chances against Boavista are very high. They will want to put more pressure on them before Porto's game against Braga. They have beaten Boavista in the last three games between these teams. They are also in great form in the league. I don't expect surprises today. I think Paulinho will score if he plays today.
There was a big match like Benfica - Sporting last week and Sporting got a very important win with a 3-1 result away. And this caused Benfica to be left behind by 4 points by Sporting and Porto. There is a really great rivalry among these three teams so far in the season and I hope to see it continuing on the last weeks of the league also. And maybe Sporting would win the title two times in a row.
We are gooing to have big match on Friday. Benfica at home is going to meet Sporting. Sporting together with Porto remaining undefeated and they are 1 point ahead from Benfica. I don't know why exactly, but bookmakers considering Benfica as clear favorite tomorrow, giving 1.75 for their win.
In other game tomorrow Porto will come to Portimonense. Quite unexpected, Portimonense started this season very well and they're in 6th place now. Though, I don't have doubts about Porto win.

Braga got quite an easy match vs Vizela winning 4-1. home team scored two goals in 1st half and 3rd early in 2nd half. now Braga takes the 4th spot in the table but still 9 points down from 3rd place.
It was an expected victory for Braga. And the match was one-sided. Vizela's players tried to hold the ball, but they did not have enough players to attack and score goals. Their defense is shaky. So they have conceded 4 goals. However, Braga is not even close to the top 3 in the points table. They are not fighting for the title.Porto is now at the top of the points table. Braga is still 10 points behind Porto. Not only that, Braga has scored 21 goals in 12 matches and conceded 15 goals. Porto, Sporting and Brnfica conceded 8, 4 and 7 goals respectively. Don't you think Braga is weaker than these teams? Braga will have to play better to win the title this season. At the same time the teams at the top of the points table have to play badly. Only then will Braga have a chance to win the title.

Estoril 2 - 2 Santa Clara
Well, this game had many goals and ended in a draw, I thought Estoril would win in a comfortable way, but in the end Santa Clara was almost lucky enough to win the game, unfortunately they conceded the penalty and for that reason the game ended in a draw. if Santa Clara had known how to hold the advantage they had, would have won this game.

I also guessed Estoril Praia would easily win this match. Because, Santa Clara is a weak team. They have won just one match this season, and drawn four. They have lost the remaining 7 matches. So Estoril Praia must have won against such a team. Estoril lost 2 points in the match only due to unconscious and weak defense. Even if they play against a weaker team, they have to perform more consciously.
The high level of competition for the league title is still continuing among Porto, Sporting and Benfica now. Porto and Sporting are sharing the points (32) but Porto are the leader. Porto - Sporting game ended in a 1-1 draw but Porto have a bigger goal average now. And Benfica are following them from only 1 point behind. They have a gap of at least 10 points with their closest competitor in the league table now. But it is normal of course as there are not many big clubs in the league. I wonder whether Sporting will win the title two times in a row or a different team will be the champions.

I had a chance to enjoy the match of Benfica vs B-SAD. Benfica's amazing gameplay has fascinated me. They played very well. They scored 7 goals in 45 minutes. And in the full 45 minutes B-SAD can not create any chance to attack. If Benfica can maintain that performance in future matches, they will continue to fight for the title until the end of the season.
yeah, it was an amazing gameplay, but opponent was under Covid, without almost all players, and that was as far as possible from fair-play from Benfica, they could score two/three goals and finish it off, not humiliate opponent in this way
but, it happened, and Benfica proved that they do not have sportsmanship
hopefully, they will not win the title this season, due to this play
Though, I wouldn't blame Benfica players - they just did their job. I'd blame Benfica because they didn't agreed to postpone game, league and federation also responsible for it.
Estoril - Santa Clara
this is a game in which Estoril can take advantage and win, if Estoril wins they will only consolidate position 4, the 3 big clubs (porto, Benfica and sporting) are very distant in relation to other clubs, so this victory for Estoril it would be important to also consolidate position 4

It was really sad to see that Belenenses had to play with only 9 players against Benfica because of covid-19. The game was played for 48 minutes and then it was abandoned. And Benfica scored 7 goals in this period of time. I think that this was really rude against Belenenses. I know that Benfica had nothing to do rather than abiding by the rules of the federation. But at least, they should have taken it easy in such conditions. They just made Belenenses players seem embarrassing. And if I'm not wrong, the Belenenses manager left the field with a great sadness after the game.

Yes it was a really great performance specially after getting a point from barcelona i guess that gave them a big boost and now they are only one point away from porto and sporting they have a solid squad with many stars like otamendi, vertonghen, joao mario and seferovic who scored 3 goals in the last two games he played in the league after a long injury.

Quite disgraceful and sad thing happening in Portugal now. Belenenses is playing against Benfica and they're loosing 0:7 after first half. Because of Covid outbreak Belenenses have just 7 players and 2 goalkeepers. And these who are playing are from deep reserve or second team.
I'm not sure wasn't really possible to postpone this game. Or giving technical defeat 0:3 probably is better than such disgraceful game.
Seems that Belenenses players didn't agreed to enter pplay 2nd half.
EDIT They entered 2nd half with 7 players, another one got "injury" and referee ended game because it's not allowed to play with 6 players.
It's worse than watching fixed game.
Sorry, I will like to be clear about this, was the game ended or cancelled? I think this is truly worse than watching a fixed match. But people will not go for Belenenses on the normal ground, Benfica will be gone for, if the match was not cancelled and given to Benfica, bettors will like it as they won the bet. That also means it is not worse for many people as the match makes them won bet. On the other hand, fixed matches are like in a way the bettors will lose.

Edit: I have checked the match result and Portugal primeira league table, the match was not cancelled, Benfica won and had their 3 point.

Benfica showed off against Belenenses yesterday and scored seven away goals. The cases of covid were so high in Belenenses that they were able to play with only nine players. I don't think this game should have been played. Belenenses was already in a bad situation, Benfica got another kick to them. I don't know what Portuguese Football Federation was thinking when making this decision.

Benfica humiliated Belenenses, in a totally atypical game.
Belenenses had to put in two goalkeepers and they still haven't completed the 9 players, since when is it acceptable?
I don't want to defend any team, but this match clearly should be annulled, in fact the players shouldn't even have taken the field... it would be more honorable to lose by W.O. than to go on the field and suffer this shame.
At least the referee had the sense to end the match in the second half, when Belenenses come back with only 7 players.
Sporting CP had a six game winning streak, today they will beat Tondela to make it seven games. They are clear favorites in the match and the odds are too low to be worth the risk.

Benfica are now at the top of the Primeira League points table. However, they will not be able to hold this top position for long. If Sporting and Porto win their next match, Benfica will once again move to third place in the points table. Porto and Sporting have yet to lose any match. Benfica lost a match. They were defeated against Portimonense. If they had not lost 3 points in this match, they could have stayed at the top of the table for some more time.
