Fenerbahçe may be the most valuable team and even have a well-experienced coach

I wonder what kind of strategy Mourinho has come up with to overcome Benfica today. Once he said 'I always beat Benfica", which is not entirely true. Let’s see what happens this time. That said, I’m leaning toward Benfica win sorry, Fenerbahçe fans. Benfica will be playing at home, backed by mobs of supporters, which will surely boost their chances. And honestly, their odds are strong regardless.


Our hearts are with Fenerbahçe to win tonight, but it's hard to know what strategy Mourinho will employ.
My prediction for tonight is that Mourinho will play for a draw and aim to win the match on penalties.
I saw last week was a poor Benfica and Fenerbahçe missed a huge opportunity at home, but this week they should capitalize on it and win this match.
I don't think Benfica is a much better team than Fenerbahçe, based on the match I saw last week.

and the game ended:



This is a result I already expected, considering that Benfica has been very strong when playing at home. They are a team that has constantly played in the later stages of the European Champions League, while Turkish teams have often failed in European competitions even when they have a superior squad. I don't know why this has been the case, but unfortunately, this is the reality. It's also better not to create high expectations for Galatasaray when they start playing in the European Champions League, because they will also lose against opponents with weak squads and then be eliminated.
