The scoreboard moved against the market favourite

The final score was Farense 1-2 Santa Clara. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

The numbers leaned the same way as the scoreline: Santa Clara led Shots on target 2-5. Santa Clara also shaded Corners 3-6.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Farense the favourite at 38.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
