Lyon - Benfica Prediction, Picks and Tips
Two historical French and Portuguese football are seeing how Germans and Russians are ahead in the leaderboard. Both need extra results to avoid seeing themselves outside Europe at the first time of change. Lyon arrives with four points after the last defeat, precisely, against Benfica in Portugal.
A result that removed the possibility of leadership of the French who now stand with four points just two from Leipzig, leader alone. First match ball saved for the Portuguese who were only worth the victory against Lyon to not see each other on day three with zero points. Thus, three points for the Lusos who finally won after the two defeats against Zenit and Leipzig in the previous matches. A very important meeting for both in the most even group in Europe.
Benfica's 2-1 against Lyon on the last day was the first Portuguese victory in the competition and tightened the ranking even further. A loss on this four day could leave either of the two teams with one foot out of the eighth of the Champions League. The Average Goal becomes key in a group as equal as G. Both must look sideways at the result in Portuguese territory.
