Prediction

• Oliveirense have become more compact since the departure of Jorge Pinto, whose style was to play two players in the first line of pressing, who then dropped back to become the third and fourth of five defenders.
• His replacements have stuck with a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 and have attempted to be pragmatic and solid at the back, winning games by exploiting counter-attacks and set-pieces.
• Benfica Lisbon B are much more free-flowing and prefer to have the ball, with a high tempo, pressing style of play.
• This clash of styles should provide a chess match with plenty of goalmouth action as Benfica B’s youthful energy meets Oliveirense’s desperation for points.
• Prediction: Benfica B to win, with Both Teams to Score and Over 2.5 Goals looking likely.
