Benfica vs Barcelona, UCL 20.10.2021

Benfica and Bayern Munich will square off at the Estadio da Luz on Wednesday with both teams looking to extend their great starts to this season’s Champions League.

Melbet Welcome Bonus offers interesting betting options and prices for this game and we will explore a couple of them in this preview.

BENFICA

Benfica used the long route to get to the group stage of the competition but having gotten there, the Portuguese outfit have proven themselves after drawing 0-0 with Dynamo Kiev on opening day and following that with a 3-0 whooping of Spanish giants Barcelona, on matchday two.

Domestically, they have also asserted their dominance and they lead the league after 7 rounds. Coach Jorge Jesus fielded a largely second-string side for their weekend Taca de Portugal cup game and they were taken to extra time by Trofense before prevailing 2-1.

With Barca on their backs in that battle for 2nd place, the regular starters should be back for this critical tie and they look to secure that 2nd round berth.

BAYERN MUNICH

Like the hosts, Barca were also on fire on matchday 2 as they put up a 5-star performance at home against Dynamo Kiev with a Lewandowski double and goal contributions from Gnabry, Sane and Choupo-Moting sealing an easy 5-0 thrashing of the Ukrainian outfit.

These kinds of performances have been common stay for the Bavarians in recent weeks. They were at it again this weekend with a 1st half 5 goal blitz setting them up for a 5-1 victory at Leverkusen that ensured they remain at the top of the pile in the Bundesliga.

A win here will virtually seal qualification to the knockout round and they will surely be gunning for that.
