REF’s picks

Backing Alcochetense with a generous head start provides a sensible safety buffer given cup match dynamics.

1. 1Lower-tier sides often raise their performance levels significantly when hosting higher-division opponents in the cup.
2. 2Maritimo might win by a narrow margin rather than dominating completely away from home.
