Monday night under the lights at Estádio da Luz, and this Primeira Liga fixture looks as lopsided as the price suggests. Benfica are priced at 1.14 (implied ~88%) with Alverca out at 15.0 — the market sees a strong favourite against a side simply hoping to keep things respectable. The market's confidence in Benfica is well-earned.
