Pulled off their first-ever appearance in the knockout stages of the Champions League after winning the first 3 games in the group without even conceding a goal but got just 2 points from the final three games and ended up finishing second in the group. Although he managed to introduce Club Brugge to the knockout stage, coach Hoefkens was fired and Scott Parker, the former coach of Fulham, who did not become famous working in London, was hired instead. He did not make a name for himself in Belgium either, considering that Club Brugge has only one win in the last 10 games. They looked pretty blunt in the 1-1 draw against a red-hot St.Gilloise side at home on Friday as well and they should be happy with a point. To make things worse, Skov Olsen and Jutgla will not play tomorrow, and the two of them, along with captain Vanaken, are the team's best players. That will certainly affect the attacking potential of the team. As for the visitors from Lisbon, they are having a great season, they are the first in Portugal and finished the Champions League group stage in first place, ahead of PSG, Juventus, and Maccabi Haifa. The greatest strength of this team is coach Schimdt, who created a fantastic team and already at the beginning of the season it was clear that his team will be a serious competitor in the Champions League. The good news for Benfica is that Rafa Silva and Goncalo Ramos have recovered, but we will see if they will start the game. Benfica plays very dynamic football with high pressing and it is very difficult for all teams against this style of play. Benfica is my big favorite in this doubleheader and I think they are currently a much better team than the Belgians. I don't expect an easy victory, but I believe that in the end Benfica will win and return triumphantly to Portugal.

在小组赛前3场连丢一球的情况下，他们首次出现在欧冠淘汰赛阶段，但在最后3场比赛中只得到2分，最终以小组第二的身份结束比赛。尽管他成功地将布鲁日俱乐部引入了淘汰赛阶段，但主教练霍弗肯斯被解雇了，取而代之的是在伦敦工作并没有成名的富勒姆前教练斯科特·帕克。考虑到布鲁日俱乐部在过去10场比赛中只取得了一场胜利，他在比利时也没有出名。他们在周五主场1-1战平热辣的圣吉洛瓦兹的比赛中看起来也相当迟钝，他们应该会很高兴得到一分。更糟糕的是，Skov Olsen和Jutgla将不会参加明天的比赛，而他们两人和队长Vanaken都是球队最好的球员。这肯定会影响球队的进攻潜力。至于来自里斯本的访客，他们正在经历一个伟大的赛季，他们是葡萄牙第一，在欧冠小组赛中排名第一，领先于PSG，尤文图斯和马卡比海法。这支球队最大的优势是主教练施米特，他创造了一支出色的球队，在赛季初，很明显他的球队将是欧冠的有力竞争者。对本菲卡来说，好消息是拉法·席尔瓦和拉莫斯已经恢复，但我们要看看他们是否能在比赛中首发。本菲卡踢的是充满活力的高压足球，对所有球队来说，对抗这种风格的比赛都非常困难。本菲卡是我在这次双赛中最看好的球队，我认为他们目前比比利时人强得多。我不期待一场轻松的胜利，但我相信本菲卡最终会赢，并胜利地回到葡萄牙。
