After their exit from the Europa League in midweek, Benfica welcome Rio Ave to the Estadio da Luz on Monday aiming to break a four-game winless streak in all competitions.

The hosts have the chance to complete a league double over their visitors, who they beat 3-0 in October's reverse fixture.

We say: Benfica 2-0 Rio Ave

Benfica have had their struggles this season, but they have remained as dangerous as ever on home soil, and we are backing them to claim yet another home win against in a relatively comfortable manner.
