This week Benfica will face a coach it owned last year in Paulo Fonseca. After what we saw last week Benfica comes to the table with essentially the same team as last year. There are two new players in the lineup: Eliseu - which is a big improvement over the options of Siqueira / Silvio last year; and either Talisca, Derley or Bebe playing beside Lima. So we know the team will be the same. And we saw last week that their level of play is already as good as last season's.
They had some troubles finishing last week but of course that would have been worked on and practiced at length over the past 6 days. With Benfica being at home, well rested, and well prepared with a star studded lineup that won everything last year this game should be a blow out. A good old fashioned "goleada".
