Competition: Portuguese Primeira Liga
Market: Benfica to win the title
Odds: 2/5 @ William Hill

Benfica are currently leading the way in the Portuguese Primeira Liga, with Jorge Jesus’ side four points clear of Porto in the table. With 56 points from 22 games, the title race looks to be swinging one way in the business end to the season. The holders have finished in the top-two of the table for the last five campaigns, and look on course to continue their run.

18 wins from their 22 outings has seen them as the most dominant force in Portugal, and with 12 games to come it doesn’t look likely that Porto will catch them. On home soil, Benfica are flawless. They’ve dropped just two points at the Estádio da Luz all season, and have lost only once in their last 14.

Jesus’s men finished 13 points clear of Porto en route to winning the title last season, and their impressive consistent form could see them pulling away from the sides around them. William Hill are giving odds of 2/5 for Benfica to win their second league crown in as many season, given how well they’re performing in the division so far.
