Benfica-Gil Vicente (LINEUP): Marco Silva swaps Palhinha for Barrenechea

Maisfutebol13 September 2026 at 17:04

Benfica faces Gil Vicente with a change in the starting XI compared to the last 4-0 victory over Moreirense. Coach Marco Silva made a single change to the starting lineup.

The change consists of replacing Palhinha with Barrenechea. This swap represents the only modification in the team's lineup for this encounter.

The Benfica-Gil Vicente match is part of the competition mentioned in the title, where the two teams face each other with different objectives in the Portuguese league standings.

With this change, Marco Silva keeps almost intact the structure that routed Moreirense in the previous round, betting only on a change in the midfield or in the position occupied by Palhinha.

Why this matters

Benfica fans are closely following Marco Silva's choices, especially after the rout against Moreirense. The swap of Palhinha for Barrenechea represents a tactical change in the squad that may influence the team's performance in the match against Gil Vicente.
