Prediction: 1-1

Benfica

There will be fireworks when Porto and Benfica face each other in O Classico on Friday evening. The Dragons did well to crush Famalicao 4-1 at the weekend, with the team extending their winning run in the Primeira Liga to seven games. Porto have been scoring goals for fun in all competitions of late, but it has to be noted that the likes of Carraca, Manafa, Ramos, and Vieira have been tested positive for coronavirus.

Ivan Marcano, on the other hand, is rated doubtful for the Primeira Liga derby. The Eagles, on the other hand, recorded a routine 2-0 win over Tondela in their last league match, with the team rolling over lower-league side Estrela in the Taca de Portugal. Almeida remains in the recovery room, while Jardel has been quarantined following his positive test for coronavirus. Anyhow, the two teams seem to be evenly matched at the moment, and we are tempted to put our money on draw.
