Liga Portugal-24th matchday: Proof derby in Dragao for Porto and Benfica

All eyes are on the big derby in Dragao in its 24th matchday Liga Portugal.

THE Porto welcomes her Benfica on Sunday night (03/03, 22:30), in a game where the “eagles” go first in the standings with 58 points and are +9 from the “dragons”, who want to get the win and stay alive in championship contention.

On the other hand, his team Roger Schmidt wants to leave with the “double”, which will knock out one of the contenders for the title, while for both gladiators a European match follows: Porto goes to England to face Arsenal in the “16” of the Champions League having won 1-0 in the first match, while Benfica in the same round, but for the Europa League, are hosted by Rangers in the first match of the pair.

In the other games of the competition, Sporting Lisbon with 56 points welcomes the Florence (20:00) and only wants the victory, which with Benfica’s loss of points in the derby will step on top, having less matches. In theory, the task is easy Braga which faces at its headquarters the Estrella da Amadora (02/03, 22:30).
