Benfica continues to chase league leaders Sporting and dreams of the Portuguese title
Vice leader of the Portuguese championship, Benfica tries to stay in the wake of leaders Sporting and dreams of taking command. The Lisbon Eagles will face Casa Pia, this Sunday (17th), at 3pm (Brasilia time), at the Rio Maior Municipal Stadium, in the 26th round of the competition.

The match will be streamed on the Star+ channel
How do you get to Casa Pia?
After interrupting a three-game unbeaten run, Casa Pia is trying to get back on track. Without much risk of relegation and far from fighting for a place in UEFA competitions, the modest Portuguese team is betting on the home factor to try to surprise Benfica. Coach Alexandre Santana will not be able to count on Kiki Silva and Rafael Brito, who are injured.
How is Benfica arriving?
Vice leader of the Portuguese championship, Benfica comes from a streak of three games without defeat. The Eagles will miss Juan Bernat, injured. Coach Roger Schmidt is banking above all on the talent of Brazilians David Neres and Marcos Leonardo, as well as the experience of names like Di María, to secure another three points.
