After rounding off the league phase in incredible fashion, José Mourinho’s Benfica now host his former club Real Madrid once more in the UEFA Champions League (UCL) play-offs. Benfica have won three of their four encounters with Real Madrid after last month’s heroics (L1), but that was also just their fourth win in 26 matches against Liga teams (D8, L14). The reverse fixture defeat was Real Madrid’s only loss in their last ten UCL matches against Portuguese outfits (W8, D1).

Benfica’s participation in the knockout phase play-offs is still nothing short of a miracle, as a 98th minute goal from goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin on matchday eight of the league phase against Real Madrid secured their spot. Becoming only the fifth goalkeeper in UCL history to score a goal, he secured Benfica’s progression into the UCL knockouts for the fourth time in five seasons, and with the Portuguese side having won eight of their last 11 two-legged European ties, coupled with being victorious in four of their last six UCL home matches (L2), they promise to be a stern opponent for the 15-time European champions here.

Betting against Europe’s most successful side in Real Madrid always seems like a sucker play regardless of the circumstances, as the experience of this being their 29th consecutive appearance in the knockout stages alongside winning ten of their last 12 two-legged UCL encounters is hard to look beyond. Three wins either side of their defeat to Benfica suggest last month’s H2H defeat was something of an anomaly, but it may also point to Los Blancos potentially losing their dominant aura on the continental scene, with that being their sixth defeat in their last 11 UCL matches inside regulation time (W5).

A joint-competition low two of Benfica’s eight UCL proper games this season saw both teams score. Four of Benfica’s last five home matches produced over 3.5 goals. Eight of Real Madrid’s last 11 matches saw both teams score. Real Madrid have scored exactly two goals in eight of their last ten games.

Benfica’s Andreas Schjelderup netted a brace against Real Madrid last month, contributing to four of his last five goals coming at home. Also scoring twice that day was the competition’s top scorer this term in Kylian Mbappé, who scored 2+ goals in five of his seven UCL outings this season.

Benfica seem to have no fresh injury concerns, while Real Madrid’s list of absentees is headlined by Jude Bellingham and Rodrygo.
