Casa Pia host Benfica in a Primeira Liga meeting with league points at stake. CheckLive's data does not mark either side as favourite, so this one is genuinely open — a draw is very much part of the picture.
Casa Pia's recent form is mixed: they lost 1-0 to Marítimo and 2-6 to Leixões SC in a friendly, but then beat CF Estrela Amadora 2-1, beat Torreense 2-0 and drew 0-0 with Torreense. Benfica have drawn 1-1 with Hearts and 2-2 with Académico Viseu, while winning 6-1 against Hearts, 5-0 against St. Gallen and 5-1 against Belenenses.
The head-to-head shows Casa Pia with one win, three draws and four defeats in eight meetings, and the last league encounter between the sides finished 1-1. With no clear favourite and that recent history of draws, this could easily go either way.
