Where can I watch: Atletico CP vs. Benfica on beIN Sports?
A short trip, a packed stadium and a potential upset: Benfica face a tricky Portuguese Cup clash that puts José Mourinho back on beIN SPORTS.
Mourinho returns to the spotlight in the Portuguese Cup
Jose Mourinho is back on beIN SPORTS in the 4th round of the Portuguese Cup.
On Friday, Benfica will not have far to travel to take on the team’s opponents in the fourth round of the Portuguese Cup. But that’s the only comfort that the team led by Jose Mourinho will have, who are facing a potential giant-killing experience in the outskirts of Lisbon.
A short trip… into a dangerous atmosphere
The Benfica players will only have to be in their team bus for just 15 minutes to reach the ground of Atletico CP, Friday’s opponents in the Taça de Portugal. The Tapadinha, the home of Atletico CP who play in Portugal's third tier, is likely to be sold out to its 4000 capacity and create an atmosphere to challenge the Benfica players.
Mourinho, unfazed by pressure
However, one person who will remain unbothered by a little intimidation is Jose Mourinho, who is more than used to a hostile reception wherever he goes.
In his two months in charge at Benfica, Mourinho has managed to steady the ship at the club, with the highlight being a credible goalless draw at the home of league-leading Porto.
However, Benfica will be without the talents of Belgian winger Dodi Lukébakio, who was injured while playing for his country against Liechtenstein on Tuesday.
