Outstanding Neres could deal Juventus the final blow

Benfica have returned to the European subtop. The Portuguese club started the season in the third qualifying round for the group stage of the Champions League. The club has now reached that group stage and is very close to the last sixteen. If a point is won on Tuesday against ailing Juventus, Roger Schmidt's squad, which includes standout David Neres, can prepare for the knockout stage.

Schmidt gets done at Benfica what failed at PSV

At PSV, some supporters were happy to see him go, but at Benfica, Schmidt is garnering mere praise. The club tops the league with 28 points from 10 games. In the group stage of the Champions League they have been performing convincingly, with no losses yet. Benfica have remained unbeaten for the last eighteen games, making it seem highly likely that at least a point will also be taken tonight against Juventus.

Bookmakers also think Benfica will qualify for the next round on Tuesday night. If Benfica win or draw you only get 1.28 times your bet back. A win by Juventus will earn you almost four times your stake. That would be the opposite result from the first match, when Benfica won 2-1 over the "Old Lady" on a visit to Turin. On all sides then, the home team was outclassed.
