Benfica have conceded just 14 goals all season, Porto are 2nd with 16 conceded.
Rio Ave are 3rd with just 23 goals conceded all season, showing that @carloscarvalha2 has established a solid defence and it is a key factor in their success.

The side with the most crosses is VitΓ³ria SC with 672
Not surprising given they setup usually in a 433 with both the LCM and RCM going wide and swinging in crosses as well as their pacy wide forwards who do well 1v1 and supply crosses.

Maybe it still will, let us know!
