My Prediction
Benfica by 2In this upcoming collision between Benfica and SC Farense, we're looking at a temptingly delicious slaughterhouse scenario. For Farense, glued to the bottom, it's less of playing football and more of playing survival. Their goalkeeper, Ricardo Velho, though he's been busy, must feel like he's playing goal at a firing range with all the shots he's faced.
On Benfica's side, they've two Goalkeepers – Samuel Soares and Anatoliy Trubin. Like the swat team, Soares has been more clinical with an 8.10 rating despite lesser saves while Trubin mirrors Velho's rating.
Farense's top players, Neto and Rony Lopes, have been working harder than a dog sled team in the Iditarod, but their zero-goal stats are slightly concerning. Miguel Menino remains the solo beacon with that snazzy 6.97 rating and his remarkable contribution to their team - 1 whole goal.
Over at Benfica's camp, it’s a mess of goals and accurate passes. MVP candidates Orkun Kökçü and Fredrik Aursnes are making football look like a walk in the park. With their deadly combination of goals, shots on goal, and laser-guided accurate passing, they're proving to be thorns in the side of opposing defenses.
Taking a walk down memory lane, past matchups scream out Benfica's dominance louder than an air horn on a quiet night. But if Game of Thrones taught us anything, it's that history is written in blood – or in this case, goals.
Going by the regular season records, if Benfica were a food, they'd be a sizzling medium-rare steak, while SC Farense still looks like it's chewing on raw mince.
Looking at recent results, the pattern is pretty...unfunny, really. SC Farense is having a touch more sinking feeling than Leonardo di Caprio in Titanic, while Benfica is out there cruising like The Fast and The Furious.
So, considering all of this,
Albert’s Prediction: Benfica by 2
