Bayern Munich – Benfica Predictions and Preview
- So far, Bayern Munich has had a rollercoaster ride in the UEFA Champions League (UCL). They started with a 9-2 win against Dinamo Zagreb on matchday one, but then they suffered a 4-1 defeat to Barcelona on matchday three. However, under the leadership of Vincent Kompany, they responded well to this setback. Since then, they’ve had three consecutive domestic wins, scoring an aggregate of 12 goals!
- They should be confident that they can continue their winning streak against Benfica. They have never lost in 12 home-and-away games (W9, D3), which is the longest streak without a loss in a major European competition. It’s expected that the win column will reach double digits in this match, as Bayern have won the last six home games against Portuguese opposition, scoring a whopping 25 goals in the process.
- Although history suggests this will be a one-sided affair, the fact that Benfica come into this matchday above Bayern in the table suggests they shouldn’t be written off. They too have had three consecutive domestic wins since their matchday three defeat, and although their wins didn’t come by the 12-0 Bayern managed, a 10-1 aggregate scoreline still makes them a dangerous opponent for the German side.
- Building on their winning run in Munich is likely to be a tall order for Benfica, who have only ever won twice away to German opposition (D7, L18). But perhaps all hope isn’t lost for the Portuguese side. They have incredibly lost only two of their last 14 UCL away games including qualifiers (W8, D4), with nine of those games seeing them net at least twice.
- Players to watch: A goal from Kingsley Coman could see Bayern walk to a healthy win. In his four goalscoring appearances this season, his side won by a 3+ goal margin. If Benfica’s Zeki Amdouni, signed by Kompany for Burnley last season, is to make an impact, it could be a late one. All three of his club goals this season arrived after the 75th minute.
- Hot streak: Benfica’s last six UCL games all produced at least three total goals.
