Just one point separates the top three in this group. Napoli and Benfica both have seven points with Besiktas a point away in third. Besiktas are yet to lose in this group but have drawn three of their four games, all ending 1-1. Their only win was a shock 3-2 victory away to Napoli. Both home games have ended in 1-1 draws though including a potentially costly one against Dinamo Kiev, the only point that side has earned to date. A win for Besiktas here and a good result away to Kiev can put them in the last sixteen. It won't be easy against second  placed Benfica whose seven points have come from two wins over Kiev and a 1-1 home draw with the Turks. A tough game to predict but I go for both teams to score.

Turkey is never an easy place to go and get a win. Benfica need three points to clinch qualification but I think a bet on both teams to score looks the safest bet here.
