Benfica Preview – Can Benfica breeze through?
Last week’s 2-0 win away from home against Dynamo Kiev has set Benfica up nicely for this return leg at their Estádio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica which also extended the Portuguese side’s winning streak to 11 games on the trot in all competitions.
Benfica are therefore heavy favourites to not only secure another win in this 2nd leg but to also progress to the group stage, while form at home at this level has been pretty good with Benfica losing just two of their last 10 home ties and picking up seven wins in the process.
Dynamo Kiev Preview – Can Dynamo Kiev pull off upset?
Being 2-0 down to Benfica with an away leg ahead of them, it looks highly unlikely for Dynamo Kiev to now reach the group stage of this season’s Champions League but with wins on the road at Fenerbahce and Sturm Graz, the visitors may feel they’re still not out of this tie yet.
Looking at the bigger picture though, Dynamo Kiev have captured just three away wins out of their last 17 away outings in the Champions League so the odds look to be stacked against a comeback from the Ukrainian side here.
