We said: Benfica 2-0 Boavista

While Boavista managed to get one over Benfica on home turf in August and appear to be improving under Paiva after their dismal run, they face a particularly difficult test in a trip to the capital to take on Benfica on Friday. As Panteras will not make it easy for the defending champions, but Schmidt's side have the quality to come out on top at the Estadio da Luz and avenge the opening-day defeat, making it 17 league games unbeaten in the process.
