本菲卡将从欧洲杯失利中恢复过来
本菲卡在周中欧冠联赛输给费耶诺德之前，在新任主教练布鲁诺·拉格的带领下取得了六场完美的胜利，但他们可以在对阵可怜的流浪者里奥阿维的比赛中重回胜利之路。
老鹰队可能在欧洲的本土输了，但他们在国内的Estadio da Luz有着惊人的记录，因为他们在该场地赢得了最后15场Primeira Liga比赛，自2023年4月以来没有在那里输掉任何一场联赛。
本菲卡在主场的15场连胜中也保持了9场零失球，他将有信心在本周末重返胜利之路。
里约大道在路上出了名的穷
里约大道队本赛季输掉了所有四场客场联赛，只进了一球，他们是本赛季唯一一支在客场比赛中得分的球队；普里梅拉联赛。
这一记录应该不足为奇，因为Luis Freire；一段时间以来，美国队一直是糟糕的旅行者，上个赛季他们在联赛中的旅行都没有取得胜利，而他们目前在顶级联赛中没有获胜的客场只有25场比赛。
在联盟的最后一场客场比赛中，里奥大道以4比0输给了布拉加，虽然他们这次可能不会成为如此惨败的接收端，但本菲卡本赛季已经两次以3比0获胜，可以取得另一个舒适的成功。

Benfica to bounce back from Euro defeat
Benfica were a perfect six wins from six under new head coach Bruno Lage prior to their midweek Champions League defeat to Feyenoord, but they can return to winning ways against poor travellers Rio Ave.
The Eagles may have lost on home soil in Europe, but they have a phenomenal record at the Estadio da Luz domestically, as they have won their last 15 Primeira Liga matches at the venue and have not lost a league game there of any sort since April 2023.
With nine clean-sheets across that 15-game winning streak on home soil as well, Benfica will be confident of returning to winning ways this weekend.
Rio Ave notoriously poor on the road
Rio Ave have lost all four of their away league games this term, scoring just once, and they are the only side yet to pick up a point on their travels in this season’s Primeira Liga.
That record should come as no surprise, as Luis Freire’s side have been poor travellers for some time, going the whole of last season without triumphing on their travels in the league, while their current winless away run in the top flight stands at 25 games.
In their last away match in the league Rio Ave lost 4-0 to Braga, and while they may not be on the receiving end of such a heavy defeat this time around, Benfica have won 3-0 twice already this season and can wrap up another comfortable success.
