The Portuguese Championship already seems sealed with Benfica largely in the lead, but this Friday evening April 7 there is the Classico between the Lisbon people and Porto.
The Portuguese Championship will, unless surprised, be won by Benfica, which has a 10-point lead over second-placed Porto 8 days from the end. The two clubs will meet tonight on the 27th day of La Liga Portugal. In case of victories of the Águias, the suspense will be definitively closed. Especially since Porto will present themselves this Friday April 7 at the Estádio da Luz where the Lisbon people have not lost in the Championship since May 7, 2022.
Porto were the last to defeat them at home. The defending champions will be able to try to repeat this performance. Absences from the formation of Sergio Conceição are however more numerous. Pepe, for example, will be sidelined due to a head injury. The club is also threatened by Braga who are third in the standings and two points behind the Dragões. In Portugal, third place is synonymous with play-offs in the Champions League while second place is directly qualifying.
