Benfica, as the home team, is widely anticipated to dominate the match against Gil Vicente. With Benfica’s strong track record and their recent performances, they are expected to control the game, especially in the second half. The high probability of an away team not scoring in the second half (97.80%) and the likelihood of both teams not scoring in the second half (67.00%) suggest a cautious approach from Gil Vicente once they are behind. Additionally, with the average total goals expected to be 2.17 and the average goals scored by Benfica at 1.33, there is a strong indication that Benfica will score but perhaps not excessively.

Under 2.5 Goals
The prediction for under 2.5 goals stands at 74.70%, which aligns with Benfica’s tendency to secure wins without high-scoring games. This suggests a tightly contested match where defensive strategies will play a crucial role.
Over 1.5 Goals
With an 72.70% chance of over 1.5 goals, it is expected that both teams will find the net at least once or twice, reflecting Benfica’s offensive capabilities and Gil Vicente’s potential to capitalize on counter-attacks or defensive lapses.
Both Teams Not to Score
The likelihood of both teams not scoring is relatively low at 61.80%, but it increases significantly for both halves, particularly the second half (67.00%). This indicates that while an early goal may occur, defensive solidity will likely take precedence as the game progresses.
First Goal Timing
The first goal is predicted to occur after the 30-minute mark (86.00%), suggesting a slow start where both teams focus on establishing their formations and strategies before making decisive moves.
Cards and Discipline
The expectation of 3.47 yellow cards reflects a match where aggressive play and tactical fouling could be prevalent, especially given the stakes for both teams.
Average Goals and Cards
With an average of 2.17 total goals and Benfica averaging 1.33 goals scored against 1.14 conceded, it is likely that Benfica will secure a narrow victory, possibly through a single goal margin.
