Barcelona are unlikely to lose against Benfica . Barcelona won the away match by a narrow margin of 1-0. However, in just 22 minutes, the referee showed Pau Cubarsi a red card. It was very difficult to win the match with 10 players. However due to Hansi flick's excellent match strategy, Barcelona was able to secure the victory until the end. Although Barcelona's overall performance was a bit slow in the first leg match.
However, in today's match, I think Barcelona will play attacking from the beginning of the match. barcelona will want to win the home match by a large margin. benfica is not a very strong opponent for Barcelona. I guess Barcelona will want to win this match by at least 2 goals...
It seems that many people have high hopes for Barcelona in today's match in the second leg of their round of 16 match against Benfica. But that's a very natural thing because Barcelona was able to win the first leg when they even lost 1 point since the first half. But Hansi Flick's team is very reliable and their mentality was maintained even though they were outnumbered in the first leg. IN the second leg, I think Barcelona will immediately appear to attack intensely. But Benfica also has a pretty solid defense. So scoring lots of goals will not be easy for Barcelona. It's just that favorite Barcelona to win is still the best choice for me. Because their strength is quite reliable.
i don't think barcelona will give the round easily. they have a team in form, they haven't progressed this well for a while and i'm sure they will want to progress further in the champions league now that they are so close. barcelona will field a very strong attack, and they won both the last two matches against benfica. it will be barcelona who will go through, very high probability.
