Storylines

Bayern Munich: Their domestic and European form couldn't be more different so far. Bayern are undefeated in Germany scoring 32 goals and allowing seven but in Champions League play they already have two losses scoring 10 goals and allowing seven. No matter what form Harry Kane is in, that won't get them far if they can't defend against tougher teams around the world. This will be a chance to show that they can or the risk of missing out on the top 24 could become real.

Bayern Munich predicted lineup: Manuel Neuer, Alphonso Davies, Kim Min-jae, Dayor Upamecano, Raphael Guerreiro, Joshua Kimmich, Joao Palhinha, Michael Olise, Jamal Musiala, Serge Gnabry, Harry Kane

Benfica: Losing to Feyenoord wasn't a great result for Benfica but this is a team that will pick up where they left off with a goal to right the ship. Their Turkish duo of Kerem Akturkoglu and Orkun Kokcu has been in great form providing balance to the attack and with Bayern's defensive woes, they'll have opportunities to push the pace. There's a mixture of experience and youth in the side so despite Traveling to a tough environment, Benfica will be ready.

Benfica predicted lineup: Antolii Trubin, Alvaro Fernandez, Nicolas Otamendi, Tomas Araujo, Alexander Bah, Florentino Luis, Fredrik Aursnes, Kerem Akturkoglu, Orkun Kokcu, Angel Di Maria, Vangelis Pavlidis

Prediction
