Benfica vs Liverpool 05.04.2022

Benfica managed to knockout highly-fancied Ajax in the Round of 16 with a 3-2 aggregate. Nevertheless, they go into this game following a 3-2 loss to Braga in the domestic league.

High flying Liverpool made it 4 wins in their last 4 games with a 2-0 win over Watford in the Premier League. They are favorites to get the win in this match.

Both teams play attacking football and are capable of getting at least a goal each in this match. We feel Liverpool has something extra to get a narrow win here.

We thus predict a correct score of 1-2.
