Santa Clara failed to find a second win in their last 5 games, suffering a disappointing draw on their last match, leaving them with just 2 draws and 1 win in their last 5 matches. The side are struggling in the bottom quarter of the Primeira Liga table and with all the hopes to leave the zone still very much active, they may have to pause the expectations when they host League leaders, Benfica this weekend.
