Benfica needs to beat Moreirense this Sunday to remain in contention for Sporting’s leadership in the 29th round of the I Football League, as well as to be able to further differentiate themselves from Porto.
After the Lions increased their lead in the standings to seven points with a 4-0 home win against Gil Vicente on Friday, the Reds could restore the difference to four if they win, although they will play one more match, but they could also extend the margin to 11 in favor of the Dragons, third and who drew 2-2 with Famalicao on Saturday.
In addition to the match in Luz, scheduled for 20:30, the 29th round will play three more matches this Sunday and will end on Monday with the Vizela-Desportivo de Chavez match.
