Porto (2.25) is the primary contender for a top-three finish, ensuring at least a Champions League playoff spot. Despite squad changes, their home strength keeps them competitive. SC Braga (15.0) remains a steady mid-table force:
- Pragmatic signings like Pau Víctor and Mario Douglas.
- Minimal squad losses.

Taça de Portugal Winner Odds
The Taça de Portugal offers fertile ground for upsets, making it a compelling betting market on 1Win. Sporting CP (2.50) is the leading contender, with their balanced squad and depth ideal for cup competitions. The signing of Luis Suárez strengthens their midfield, enhancing their prospects.
Benfica (3.50) is a strong alternative, maintaining an attacking philosophy despite their youth movement. Talents like Richard Rios could shine in cup ties, especially at Estádio da Luz. Porto (4.75) is a dark horse, with their revamped squad needing time but capable of capitalizing on cup matches to gel. Gabri Veiga’s flair could prove decisive.
SC Braga (8.00) is a reliable cup performer, with their stable squad well-suited for knockout formats. Vitoria Guimaraes (15.00) offers value for riskier bets, potentially prioritizing the cup as a trophy opportunity.
