The scoreline says 1–0; by chance quality the match ran 1.68–0.62.

The brain read

Benfica created the better chances — the xG read 1.7–0.6 and the shot count agreed (13–8, 4–4 on target). Benfica got into the box far more often (9 shots inside it to 4) and Benfica held 65% of the ball. On the balance of chances, the 1–0 reads fair.

A second opinion written by rule from the numbers on this page — where the shot picture and the xG disagree, it says so rather than picking a winner. Backward-looking only; it claims nothing about any future result.
