Correct football prediction for Benfica – Liverpool

Are you ready for our correct football prediction? Let’s take a look at the upcoming Champions League 1/4-finals game between Benfica and Liverpool on Tuesday. Here we go!

 

Benfica are the obvious underdog in this tie, but it doesn’t mean they will not try to cause an upset here. The Portuguese giants eliminated Ajax in the previous round of the competition so they are full of confidence now. Their shape looks good as they won four of their last five matches in all competitions.

 

Darwin Nunez is the man to watch in Benfica’s team right now. The Uruguayan striker has scored 26 goals in 33 matches for the club this season – an achievement which makes him the star in the dressing room. He has scored four times in the Champions League since the start of the campaign and he’s hungry for more.

 

Liverpool are full of ambition after their disappointing 2020/21 season. Now the Reds managed to improve and they are fighting to finish the season with the Quadruple – winning all four competitions they participate in. This would be a truly historic achievement.

 

What really impress us right now is the plethora of options which Jurgen Klopp has in attack. The arrival of Luis Diaz made Liverpool even more deadly in attack while Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino remain available as well. These strikers are scoring for fun so we expect a tough night for Benfica’s defense on Tuesday.

 

That’s our correct football prediction for the Champions League 1/4-finals game between Benfica and Liverpool. For the Portuguese side this is a chance to get a positive result before their trip to the Anfield. But Liverpool? They are surely one of the biggest contenders for the trophy right now. Many things here depend on how they will do at Estadio da Luz.
