Red Bull Salzburg vs Benfica Predictions
Benfica’s bid to end in failure
Benfica have endured a miserable Champions League campaign and they have to win in Austria to stand any chance of snatching third and a Europa League consolation prize.
An away win looks unlikely, though, and our prediction is that Salzburg can claim their second win of the season over the Portuguese giants.
It was 2-0 to Salzburg when these two met in Lisbon on Match Day one and they are a solid bunch to beat on home soil.
Eight of Salzburg’s last ten matches on home soil have seen one or both teams fail to score and they have kept six clean sheets in their last ten home encounters.
Salzburg have third place in their grasp and they have no need to force the issue on Tuesday, with Benfica facing a win or bust assignment.
The home side can hold firm and we predict a comfortable win for the Austrians once again.
Eagles failing to roar
Benfica have drawn their last three matches and haven’t won away since a victory over Portuguese strugglers Chaves at the start of November.
They have looked out of their depth in this competition, managing to score just four goals in their five fixtures so far and we predict another blank for the beleaguered Eagles.
It was 2-0 to Salzburg earlier in the group stage and our predictions is for a repeat score-line in Austria on Tuesday.
