On Tuesday at 20:00 there will be a match in the fourth round of Group G of the Champions League, Lyon – Benfica.
The duel catches the two outside the places that ensure the presence in the spring Champions League, Lyon being on the 3rd with 4 points while his opponent, Benfica, is on the last place in the group with 3 points.
But it is a group in which anything can happen until December and the hierarchy can change dramatically, the difference between first and last place being only three points.
The French seek revenge after the tour had practically the draw in hand, giving up the dispute on a monumental loop of Lopes that unleashed directly to Pizzi, he completing a simple formality in the 86th minute of the match, setting the final score, 2-1 after previously his teammate Silva made it 1-0 in this match and Depay took the score at 1-1 in the 70th minute.
After defeating Lisbon’s “Estadio da Luz”, Lyon managed to tie two consecutive victories in Ligue 1, thus having an iron morale ahead of Tuesday’s clash with the Lusitanians on their own ground.
On the other hand, Benfica have a series of five consecutive games won in all competitions, the last defeat being the one in the Russian Champions League with Zenit.
Probable teams Lyon– Benfica:
Lyons: Lopes- Dubois, Andersen, Denayer, Kone- Reine-Adelaide, Mendes, Tousart, Aouar- Depay, Dembele
Benfica: Vlachodimos- Almeida, Dias, Ferro, Grimaldo- Pizzi, Luis, Pires, Cervi- Chiquinho, Vinicius
PREDICTION: Lyon to win @ 2,00
