Barcelona vs Benfica 23.11.2021

Barcelona are coming from giving new coach Xavi his first win after a narrow 1-0 over Espanyol in La Liga. They will be aware that victory here is crucial in their bid towards making it out of this UCL group.

Two back-to-back heavy defeats to Bayern Munich saw Benfica drop to 3rd in this group. Another loss here would seriously dent their hopes of qualifying for the next round.

Barcelona are slowly getting their affairs in order and should have enough personnel and motivation to register a victory over Benfica in this match.
