Benfica vs Tondela build-up & previous line-ups:
Benfica achieved their first objective of the season when they secured passage into the Champions League group phase. The Eagles went into their second leg at PSV Eindhoven with a 2-1 lead and despite having a man sent off Jorge Jesus’ men played out a hardfought goalless draw. Back at home they’ve started the 2021/22 league season with three successive wins, only city rivals and champions Sporting have matched them stride for stride, at home they’ve won three of their past three matches and will be hoping to make it three wins on the bounce at the Estádio da Luz this weekend.
Since coming up in 2015 the Auriverdes have never finished above 11th place in Portugal’s top division. After three matches this season, which has yielded two losses, they find themselves in that position. Their form on the road isn’t the best as Ayestarán’s side across their last 18 away trips have tasted two wins and 12 defeats. However, in six previous visits to Benfica they have celebrated a win, that sensational result came in April 2018 when they claimed a 2-3 success. Miguel Cardoso was the hero that day with two goals.
- Benfica (vs PSV): Vlachodimos; Veríssimo, Morato, Otamendi; Gilberto, Weigl, Mário, Grimaldo; Rafa Silva, Taarabt; Yaremchuk.
- Tondela (vs Portimonense): Niasse; Bebeto, Gonçalves, Quaresma, Khacef; João Pedro, Dantas; Murillo, Agra, Barbosa; Dos Anjos.
