Preview: Barcelona vs Benfica
Barcelona are ready to host Benfica in the UEFA Champions League 2024-25 round of 16 second leg. This is going to be an interesting contest between the two teams. Blaugrana did not go for a very aggressive approach and still managed to bring out a one-goal advantage for themselves from leg 1.
Hansi Flick’s Barcelona also defended well. Benfica had a very good attacking rate but were still not able to score any goals here. Barcelona have done well in the LaLiga and the UEFA Champions League this season. This time they will be at home which will be a big advantage for them.
Benfica attacked well but did not convert any of their shots into a goal. Possession-wise, both sides handled the ball for an equal amount of time. The Liga Portugal side will be under pressure as they are down by a goal. Benfica are looking to give their all but the UEFA Champions League contest against Barcelona is not going to be an easy one.
