Bayern – Benfica

Bayern will seek to confirm a knockout stage berth for themselves when they take on Benfica at home in a Champions League game on Tuesday. Bayern responded to the 5-0 humiliation against Borussia Monchengladbach in style, inflicting a 5-2 loss upon Union Berlin in their most recent league game. They are first in Group E with nine points from three matches played. They have scored 12 goals and conceded none, and have been the most impressive side in the competition so far.

Benfica, on the other hand, are second in the group and have four points from three matches played. They have a record of one win, one draw and one loss. Benfica secured a 1-1 draw against Estoril Praia in their last competitive fixture.

Bayern Munich and Benfica have played five matches against each other so far. Benfica are yet to register a win against the Bavarian giants, while one game ended in a draw. Bayern have four wins to show for their efforts. The last meeting between the two sides ended in a 4-0 win for the German side. Benfica don’t have the tools to deal with Bayern’s personnel and Julian Nagelsmann’s side should be able to stroll to an easy win.
