Benfica enter the second leg of the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round boasting a two-goal lead. They are out to maintain that lead when they welcome Nice to the Estadio da Luz in the second leg. Here's our math prediction,
Benfica come into this match brimming with confidence. The Lisbon outfit is just one leg away from progressing to the UEFA Champions League play-offs after their brilliant display in the first leg of the third qualifying round.
What was expected to be a tense affair against Nice turned out to be a walk-through for Bruno Lage's men. In the first leg, they won 2-0 away from home.
There was nothing to separate the two sides in the first half as they played to a goalless draw. However, the Eagles saw themselves rejuvenated in the second half as goals from Franjo Ivanovic and Florentino Luis led to their victory.
Nice have not made it to the main draw of the UEFA Champions League since 2018. Their dreams of achieving such a feat seem to be hanging by a thread as they enter the second leg of the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round.
Les Aiglons were punished dearly for their profligacy in the final third against Benfica in the first leg. They lost 2-0 in front of their home crowd despite registering 12 shots at goal.
