Fresh off the back of losing to Sporting Lisbon in the Taca da Liga final, Benfica welcome Gil Vicente to the Estadio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica in round 20 of the Primeira Liga on Wednesday.
The visitors, on the other hand, head into the game on a four-game unbeaten run and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling and strengthen their position in the top half of the table.
We say: Benfica 2-1 Gil Vicente
After slipping in the title race, Benfica could move into second place with all three points on Wednesday. While Gil Vicente will look to keep their fine form going, we are tipping the hosts to come away with all three points given the gulf in class and quality between their two squads.

Two sides at contrasting ends of the Portuguese Primeira Liga go head to head on Wednesday when Belenenses play host to Sporting Lisbon at the Estadio Nacional do Jamor on Wednesday.
While the hosts remain rooted to the bottom of the league table, the visitors head into the game fresh off the back of picking up their second piece of silverware this season after defeating Benfica in the Taca da Liga final and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.
We say: Belenenses 0-3 Sporting Lisbon
Sporting Lisbon will head into the game in sky-high confidence having clinched the Taca da Liga title against rivals Benfica last time out. They are currently on a 12-game unbeaten run against Belenenses and we are backing them to extend their dominance and heap more misery on the floundering hosts.
