Based on last 50 matches in "Portugal. Liga Portugal", up to 03/12/2023
To build a prediction for the Maritimo - Benfica match, scheduled for 12 March 2023, several key factors could influence the outcome. Maritimo have played 50 matches, in which they won 12 of them, drew 12 times and lost 26 matches. Benfica, having played 50 matches, won 36 times, drew 7 matches and lost 7 defeats. In the league, Maritimo average 1 goals scored per game and 1.5 conceded. Benfica average 2.3 scored and 0.8 conceded. These sides last met on 17 September 2022 at Benfica's ground, where the home side came out on top.
Since Maritimo are playing at home, I want to bet on the hosts with a positive handicap. Although they are clear underdogs in such matches, when the favorite is playing away, there are usually not many goals. And the best option is to bet on the weaker team.
Maritimo hosts league leader Benfica. Benfica plays equally well at home and away, wins a lot, scores many goals, and concedes few. I assume that Benfica's goal will remain untouched in this game as well...
