Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Friday's Primeira Liga fixtures - Portimonense vs. Porto and Benfica vs. Sporting Lisbon.

Porto will be bidding to make it eight Primeira Liga victories in a row when they continue their 2021-22 campaign away to Portimonense on Friday night.

The Dragons are currently top of the table, level on points with second-placed Sporting Lisbon, while Portimonense have collected 20 points from their 12 matches to occupy sixth position.

We say: Portimonense 0-2 Porto


Portimonense should enter this match in good confidence due to their recent form, but it is very difficult to back against Porto considering their league results of late. Conceicao's team have so much quality in the final third, and we are expecting them to pick up another three points in this clash.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

One of the biggest matches on the Primeira Liga calendar will take place in Lisbon on Friday evening, as Benfica welcome the Portuguese champions Sporting Lisbon to Estadio da Luiz for the Lisbon derby.

Benfica are currently third in the table, one point behind second-placed Sporting, ahead of the mouthwatering contest between two of the biggest clubs in Portugal.

We say: Benfica 1-1 Sporting Lisbon


Losing Palhinha and Coates is a big blow for Sporting considering their importance, but the Green and Whites will still fancy their chances of picking up a positive result. It would not be a surprise to see a home win or an away win here, but we have ultimately settled on a low-scoring draw in Lisbon.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
