- Halftime Score Prediction: 0-0

The AI-generated best tip for this match is Under 3.5 Goals, supported by a strong 8.0/10 confidence rating. Historical data backs this up—only 21.9% of Liga de Honra matches exceed 3.5 goals, making this a statistically sound bet.

Head-to-Head & Recent Form
In their last meeting on July 21, 2024, Tondela secured a 1-0 victory over Benfica B. This suggests a tight match is likely once again. Additionally, Tondela’s unexpected 2-2 away draw against Maritimo (despite odds of 5.25) shows resilience, while Benfica B’s 1-1 away draw against Santa Clara (odds of 5.0) highlights their ability to compete on the road.

Final Betting Recommendation
Tondela’s home advantage and recent head-to-head success make them the stronger pick for a win. However, given the low-scoring trend, combining a Tondela win with Under 3.5 Goals could provide additional value. Expect a cagey first half, with the breakthrough likely coming after the break.

For bettors seeking a safe option, Under 3.5 Goals at 1.26 is a strong selection. For those looking for higher value, backing Tondela to win at 2.0 aligns with both statistical trends and AI predictions.
