Preview

Benfica dominated after the half-time break against Moreirense last time out, hammering Vasco Costa's side 4-0 at Parque de Jogos Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas. The hosts are in red-hot form and are chasing a seventh consecutive victory in all competitions on Sunday.

Gil Vicente's unbeaten start to the Liga Portugal season came to an end last weekend when they were beaten 1-0 on home soil by a Joao Guilherme-inspired Academico Viseu side. This will be an even tougher test for Luis Pinto's men.
