Benfica end postive week with tie atop Portugal

After advancing to the round of 16 in the Champions League earlier in the week, they will now face Barcelona. Benfica then went into their Week 23 game against Boavista and played one of their better games of the season earning a victory, couple that with a Sporting draw and they are now leveled in points atop Portugal.

Benfica goes now into this week's quarter-final encounter with Braga in the Taca de Portugal on a positive note and full of confidence as they look to move into the semi-final stage. Benfica's winter transfer acquisitions have so far had a positive impact with the club, with Bruma, Andrea Belotti and Samuel Dahl all contributing to the club's success since arriving in Lisbon.
