SLB v AVFC
Benfica drew 2-2 at home against Academico Viseu in Liga Portugal, missing our model's 73% pick for a Benfica win. Both sides found the net in each of their last five matches, and that pattern held again as neither defence could establish control. The result leaves Benfica without a win in their last five outings. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
