Benfica II Arouca betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario will be the occurrence of some goals. The men of the house should assume the bulk of the match and have the best chances of goal, since they present a young team with talent. On the other hand, visitors should focus on counterattacks and set plays to reach finishing zones and capitalize on the winning goal. It should be noted that 40% of the matches played at Arouca's home ended with less than two goals. Having said that and taking into account these factors, betting in favor of “less than 2.5 goals” is a worthwhile option.
