Benfica
Coming after a series of five consecutive victories obtained in all competitions, host band will climb one of the top two places of the group in case of victory. The situation “Eagle” would have been much better if he had not wasted two points in the match against Besiktas when they were equalized in minute 90 + 3. Even so, with only one defeat this season, 2-4 against Napoli, it is obvious that they make up one of the most in form teams in the moment.
In the last 3 matches disputes, Benfica managed to win without receiving blank. The latest victim was Ferreira, which passed this weekend, 3-0.
Dinamo Kiev
On the other side, after an excellent start to the season in which they managed to win the Ukrainian Super Cup and no more than 5 consecutive wins in the league, guests have entered into a real obscurity. Only 3 wins earned Rebrov’s band in the last 12 matches played in all competitions. Last even came Saturday in the championship 4-1 Karpaty, but even so, Dynamo remain in 3rd place, 7 points behind leaders Shakhtar.
With an old iron Defense, “White-Blues” received 5 goals so far in the 3 matches played in UCL.
Head to Head
The two teams have met three times now, each time in the Champions League. Benfica managed to win twice, but never to note is that both teams failed to score.
