    Where those opponents sat in the table: strong means they averaged roughly the top 40%, weak roughly the bottom 40%, mixed in between.

    Opposition faced: Nacional mixed, Benfica strong

    The form score weights every result and every goal by where the opponent sat in the table, so five wins over the bottom of the table score below five over the top.
