Benfica did not fare well in the Champions League group stage - after all, many expected much more from them. However, in a group with Real Sociedad, Inter, and Salzburg, the team earned only four points and finished third. But now, Lisbon is showing fantastic football, going undefeated for 18 matches (13 wins and five draws). The draw came just the day before when Benfica failed to beat Vitoria Guimarães (2:2).
Toulouse
Toulouse, for their part, had an impressive Europa League group stage. The modest Ligue 1 club, who ended up in the competition after winning the French Cup, indeed did their best. In the company of Liverpool, Union St. Gillois, and LASC, they showed their mettle and finished second in the standings, gaining 11 points and almost leapfrogging the Merseysiders. But things have not gone well for Toulouse lately, with three losses in four meetings.
Expert Betting Tips
We think Benfica will come out stronger this time. Lisbon plays fantastic football, and they are virtually impossible to beat. Toulouse impressed in the UEL group stage, but now the playoffs have begun - everything is much more serious. An outsider from Ligue 1 won't fight back simply because they lack resources. We expect a confident victory for the hosts.
