Group C winners Benfica take on Group D runners up Chelsea in an intriguing-looking FIFA Club World Cup last 16 tie. Benfica produced a fantastic display in their final group game to defeat Bayern Munich 1-0, overhauling the German giants at the top of the group in the process. Prior to that, Bruno Lage's men had thrashed Auckland City 6-0, after coming from 2-0 down to secure a draw against Boca Juniors in their opening match. Veteran Angel di Maria could be the Benfica man to watch on Sunday. The Argentinian has three tournament goals so far and has been rolling back the years with some dominant midfield displays.
Chelsea booked their last 16 place by defeating Esperance Tunis 3-0 in their final group game. However, they had to settle for second place in their group due to a disappointing 3-1 defeat to Flamengo on matchday two. Portugal wide man Pedro Neto has been the star player for the Blues so far, scoring two goals and causing countless problems with his direct running.

Our Benfica Lisbon vs Chelsea Prediction
This should be one of the standout games in the last 16. Benfica were superb in their victory over Bayern. If they can produce something similar on Sunday, they will cause plenty of problems for a Chelsea side still looking to find their best form. The Blues are clear favorites with bookmakers, but we would not be surprised to see this go all the way to extra time and even penalties. If that happens, picking a winner will be extremely difficult, so our prediction for Benfica vs Chelsea is: Draw after 90 minutes.
