This Tuesday, Benfica can secure access to the round of 16 of the Football Champions League by hosting the Italians Juventus, who are bound to win at Estádio da Luz, in the fifth round of Group H.
A victory automatically ensures the ‘incarnated’ a place in the next stage of the ‘Champions’, although a draw could also serve, if Maccabi Haifa cannot beat Paris Saint-Germain in France in the other group meeting.
Benfica hosts Juventus at a time when they remain unbeatable in all competitions in 2022/23, after beating FC Porto (1-0) at Dragão on Friday, for the Portuguese First League.
On the Italian side, the Argentine Di María, a former Benfica player, will have to miss his return to Luz due to physical problems.
The meeting is scheduled for 20:00.
