Primeira Liga games you won't want to miss on matchday three
Gil Vicente vs Benfica: This game will be interesting for Portuguese football watchers as Gil Vicente have also had an impressive start to the season. Indeed, both sides will come into this match on six points, and while Benfica are the natural favorites, anything certainly could happen, especially considering Saturday's hosts have yet to concede a goal.
Sporting CP vs Belenenses: Sporting have gotten off to a flying start, with two wins in two helping them sit on top of the table. However, they're not the only team to have picked up six points, with fellow "Big Three" sides Benfica and Porto also getting off to a perfect start, while Gil Vicente are hoping to also mantain their strong beginning. The same can't be said of Sporting's upcoming opponents, who have yet to pick up a single point and have scored just once so far.
Maritimo vs Porto: Like their fellow "Big Three" sides, Porto have won their first two games, and with Benfica facing a potentially tricky test against Gil Vicente, will Porto be able to exploit this and move to top of the table?
