Prediction

  • High-flying Monaco host Benfica on matchday five in the UEFA Champions League, having won three of their opening four matches.
  • The principality club sit third in the new league table, behind only Liverpool and Sporting.
  • Benfica have won two and lost two thus far, and were narrowly beaten by Bayern Munich last time out in this competition.
  • These two sides last met in this competition 10 years ago with a goalless draw played out in this fixture.
  • Expect goals at both ends this time around, with a draw perhaps the likeliest result.
