Benfica will play their outstanding match today, it will Jose morihno second match since he took over in Benfica. He won is first game 0-3 beating AFS away from home. Today they will be playing RIO AVE and it will be his first home game, I expect nothing but a big win, Rio Ave have been poor since the beginning of season, they are still yet to get a win this season, they have managed just 3 point in draw.

A win will put Benfica back in the second place, they will be just 2 point behind FC Porto who is yet to drop point This season. I believe Jose will make this league more competitive and he had nothing in mind this season than to win the league for Benfica, well I believe he can archive it with them, but he need to make a couple of signing In January.

I gambled on Benfica to win and over2.5, I really expect goals in this game and I hope they don’t disappoint.

Mourinho is a bit lucky to have easy opponents on first games. That's perfect for new coach. Starting against more difficult opponents, especially if you wouldn't end game with a win would already give big pressure. Benfica over 2.5 goals looks like good bet.
Yesterday Sporting had troubles, despite complete dominance. They only scored first goal on 76 minute amd added two more on 90 and 90+4 minute. I already accepted that my over 2.5 goals bet was lost, but got some luck.

I love the fact that Joseph Mourinho returned to Portugal where he made impact earlier in his coaching career and from here I think he will retire from coaching. Being in charge of Benfica is another good thing that happened to him because that is a team he will not have much troubles coaching since they already have the quality of players they need to be great. First match victory is a good sign and that will challenge Sporting and FC Porto to be more serious this season.
