Official: Estoril v Benfica set for Saturday after Braga setback | OneFootball

Liga Portugal has confirmed kick-off times for the 34th and final round of the Liga Betclic, with Estoril v Benfica set for Saturday 16 May at 20:30. The game, at Estádio António Coimbra da Mota, could determine Benfica's European fate.

It comes amid heavy pressure on José Mourinho's side. After drawing with Braga at the Luz, they slipped to third and now must win and hope for a Sporting slip to finish second.

The league has scheduled Benfica and Sporting to play simultaneously. While Benfica visit Estoril, Sporting host Gil Vicente at Alvalade, also at 20:30, in a clash with major Champions League implications.

Elsewhere, champions Porto host Santa Clara at 15:30, which should provide the stage for their title celebrations.

Four fixtures are slated for 18:00, pivotal to the battles for Europe and survival. The evening then belongs to the final calls involving Benfica and Sporting, with the Estoril trip closing a season that keeps Benfica calculating until the last minute.
