Benfica Lisbon vs Leipzig Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Steve Ashfield | in Champions League Prediction
With Porto knocked out in the qualifying rounds, Benfica are the only Portuguese club in the Champions League this season. They are second in the Portuguese league, a point behind surprise leaders Famalicao. Benfica have won four out of their five league games with the other being a 2-0 home loss to Porto. Home form in the Champions League has seen them win two, draw two and lose one of their last five games, the only loss being to Bayern Munich. Their last seven home games in the Champions League have all had under 2.5 goals scored in them.
RB Leipzig have made a strong start to the season and top the Bundesliga. They are a point clear of Borussia Dortmund with three wins and draw. Their first three league games were all won before being held to a draw at home by Bayern Munich who took a third minute lead in that game. This is their second season in the Champions League and they have never made it out of the group stages. Last season saw them lose in the group stages of the Europa League. The tip here is for under 2.5 goals to be scored in this match.
