Competition: Portuguese Primeira Liga
Market: Porto to win the title
Odds: 6/4 @ William Hill
Portuguese giants FC Porto are enjoying fine form in the domestic league of late, and have been gaining ground on leaders Benfica over the last few weeks. Benfica were six pints clear last month, but the gap has since been cut in half, and Porto are enjoying a run of seven wins from their last eight league games.
Such form has seen the Dragons push Benfica all the way in the title race, and the two giants are sure to be neck-and-neck for the remainder of the campaign. Porto missed out on the title last season, which ended three consecutive league triumphs in 2010/11, 2011/12 & 2012/13, but they find themselves in touching distance this time round.
Benfica are the side to beat in the league. They were at the summit in 2013/14, and have continued such dominance this campaign. They have, however, recently endured a minor blip following a surprise defeat against Rio Ave that has allowed Porto back in, who are also boasting much better form.
As a result, William Hill are giving odds of 6/4 for Porto to win back the league title this season.
