Benfica are doing great in the Portuguese Primeira, but have been terrible in the Champions League. It’s the total opposite when it comes to their next opponents, Monaco.

Benfica are on the bottom of the Group C of the Champions League. They lost both matches so far, which is why they’ll have to go for a win against Monaco. Benfica are definitely a fine side, which they prove every week in the Primeira, where they are on the top, undefeated, with 6 wins and only 1 draw.

Monaco are topping the group table with 4 points. They beat Bayer Leverkusen at home in the opening round, while in Russia, they played 0-0 with Zenit Petersburg. Despite being good in the Champions League, Monaco have been disastrous in the Ligue 1. They are on the 10th spot in France and need to focus more on that competition.
