Benfica v Estoril (2026/27): how to watch, likely XI, times and… | OneFootball

Benfica will have their third Liga Portugal Betclic fixture this Monday. Marco Silva’s side, who previewed the clash, host Estoril at the Estádio da Luz on Matchday 4 of the competition and want a win to stay in the title race.

Last Thursday, Benfica won away against Denmark’s Aarhus (3-1), securing qualification for the Europa League league phase. The team had already won the first leg at the Luz 3-1. The mission now is to keep up the team’s great attacking form, having scored 28 goals in just eight matches.

Samuel Soares, Alexander Bah, Tomás Araújo, Clément Lenglet, Samuel Dahl, Enzo Barrenechea, Leandro Barreiro, Rafa, Georgiy Sudakov, Gianluca Prestianni and Vangelis Pavlidis. This should be the starting XI chosen by Benfica.

For this Monday’s match, Fredrik Aursnes is a doubt for the clash against Vasco Matos’ side. Jaden Umeh is also out, as he is still recovering from a right thigh injury and is expected to remain sidelined for a while longer.

With those absences, the coach is expected to stick with the core of the team that has featured in the main Europa League matches to beat Estoril and prevent Porto from opening up a big gap, as the Dragons have won all three of their matches so far.
