Club Brugge vs Benfica 15.02.2023

Benfica is on a roll, and Club Brugge is not going down without a fight. The first round of the UCL with see these two teams clash in an epic battle for soccer supremacy.

Club Brugge performed well in their group-stage matches, losing only one match and finishing 2nd with 11 points. They are unbeaten in their last 6 matches in all competitions but had struggled to convert draws to victories in these 6 matches (1W, 5D). Luckily for Club Brugge, they will resume their UCL action on their own turf, which should boost confidence in the squad, but they still have to play at 100% if they are to get past one of the unbeaten sides in this year’s UCL.

On the other hand, things are looking extremely good for Benfica; they have been unbeaten in their last group matches (4W, 2D) and are at 1st with 14 points. In a group that had PSG, Benfica stood strong and came on top with a goal difference. They have also been impressive domestically this season as well; they sit in first place with a total of 53 points from 20 games played so far. Roger Schmidt will rally his men to get a positive result back to Portugal for the second leg.

We think this match will be a very tight one with both teams giving their best to win this game. But Benfica has enough firepower to start scoring in this match.
