Benfica and Arouca meet in Liga Portugal with their goal-scorers and playmakers ready to take on pivotal roles. Benfica’s offensive unit, carefully orchestrated by Bruno Lage, has leaned on Vangelis Pavlidis, their main scorer, and Muhammed Kerem Akturkoglu, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. In Liga Portugal, Pavlidis has been Benfica’s standout scorer with fourteen goals, as Akturkoglu continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with nine assists. Orkun Kokcu, Angel Di Maria and Andreas Schjelderup have made their presence felt as well, chipping in with decisive contributions in attack.

Meanwhile, Arouca’s attacking options, under the tactical direction of Vasco Seabra, have been bolstered by Henrique Araujo, the team’s top scorer, and Jason, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Araujo has already scored five goals in Liga Portugal this season, while also leading the team in assists, having set up one goal this campaign. Arouca have also relied on Alfonso Trezza, Morlaye Sylla and Guven Yalcin to energize their attack through key shots and passes.
