Bruno Lage’s record at risk as Benfica face Casa Pia | OneFootball

The record currently held by Bruno Lage may be close to being matched. Benfica hosts Casa Pia tonight, November 9, and the mark set by the Setúbal coach may no longer be his, as the Eagles seek to respond differently than they did in the Champions League.

According to the newspaper Record, in this Sunday's edition, the 62-year-old coach is still fine-tuning the team, however, domestically, the Club of Light has been performing well in recent matches - victories against Arouca and Vitória Guimarães. In this sense, and to keep up with their rivals, the Glorious seeks to maintain the pace against the Geese.

If Benfica's team wins against Casa Pia, then José Mourinho will achieve three consecutive victories in the championship, something that has only happened once this season, still under the command of Bruno Lage, who was dismissed on September 18.

It should be noted that the winning streak led by Bruno Lage was interrupted by a home draw against Santa Clara (1-1), a match that marked the beginning of the end of the coach's tenure at Benfica. Before that fateful night, the Reds had three consecutive victories: Estrela Amadora (1-0), Tondela (3-0), and Alverca (2-1).

Remember that Benfica hosts Casa Pia tonight, November 9, for the 11th round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, which will take place at Estádio da Luz at 8:30 PM. In the standings, the Club of Light is in 3rd place, with 24 points, 4 points behind Porto and Sporting.
