The Champions League hopes of both Juventus and Benfica are on a knife-edge, which makes their Wednesday night clash at the Allianz Stadium a hugely intriguing encounter.
Juve are currently in 17th spot, three points off the top eight, but also only three points clear of the teams outside of the playoff places. Such is the tight nature of the league phase of the competition, a defeat on Wednesday would leave Juve looking nervously over their shoulders ahead of a Matchday Eight visit to Monaco.
Benfica looked to be heading out of the competition after losing their opening four games. However, back-to-back victories have reignited their hopes, and they now sit just one point outside of the playoff places. If they can pull off a shock victory in Turin, they will go into their final game against Real Madrid with a realistic chance of progressing.

Our Juventus vs Benfica Lisbon Prediction
Benfica's recent Champions League revival makes this is a very tricky game to predict.
Juve clearly have the stronger squad, but they have struggled for consistency over the last few months. It is also worth noting that Juv e's only two Champions League victories this season have been against the relative minnows of Pafos and Bodo/Glimt.
In contrast, Benfica's Matchday Six win over Napoli showed thay can compete with Europe's elite, so we are backing them to continue their revival by picking up at least a point on Wednesday.
Our prediction for Juventus vs Benfica is: Double chance: Draw/Benfica.
