Braga is close, and it's really nice watch them both Benfica and Braga winning all.When it will be the direct match between them?

 

[Master Pi a Gi]

Only on the 24 fixture of the League that means 2 months

I think head-to-heads will be decisive.

 

[Coruja]

Braga has a great player that made great influence last year on loan, until the end of the season ( Luis Aguiar ) and surely that he'll make some big improvement in that team. I want to believe that they will fall in the next games. But i believe that we can win too xD. We beat Maritimo ( one of the most troublesome teams ), now its Guimaraes ( really difficult ). Hope that Sporting will win against Porto, that would make 9 points between us if we win our game, and 12 of Sporting ( the same that is now ).

 

[Arnau]

braga can't keep the level, its between porto and benfica.

 

[Coruja]

braga can't keep the level, its between porto and benfica.

Its what i believe too, but seeing the way they're playing make me a little suspicious about that. In the end of last year they were decreasing (but still winning ), now they are improving again and win with less difficulty. They got back Luis Aguiar and Renteria that may be a great help. And they have only Portuguese League and Taça de Portugal this season ( they got out in Europa League and Taça da Liga)... But i believe that in the next league match they will fall and we might reach the first place if we can surpass Guimaraes. Sporting is improving, so this time i think that they'll lose (and begin to lose their confidence). Maybe a 3rd or 2nd place for Braga ( if Porto continues to play like this in the league)

 

[Coruja]

Nelson Oliveira (18 years old), one of our most precious youth player was loaned to Rio Ave. Hope that he'll show the awesome talent that he have!

 

[Master Pi a Gi]

Funny thing our next game its against Rio Ave also, but i hope he plays well.

Just a draw its needed for us in the League Cup.

Also on monday if im not mistaken it will be the game Benfica All Stars vs Zizou and Fat Ronaldo friends

any particular reason for those two out of that extensive list of players?

in terms of the pensioners who we won't see grace the field too often, I'm looking forward to seeing:

Kluivert!, Figo!, Rui Costa!, Zidane!, Michael Laudrup, Nedvěd, Hagi, Cocu, and even Pierluigi Collina

 

[Coruja]

Benfica won today against Rio Ave by 1-2. And qualified to the next phase of League Cup with (Sporting, Porto and Académica). Nothing to say about this match. Kardec made his debut and hit the post twice in the same play, that was unlucky. And when he got in, almost scored in his first touch in the ball. One game is too soon, but i liked his first game.

 

[silvone]

So, today is the big game, Benfica vs All stars, right?
Any predictions guys ? I'll go for 5-5 !

 

[Coruja]

Chalana, 50 years old and running like a crazy xD. What a great player he was! He almost made a trick to Dani Alves.
