The hosts of today’s match have a few strong points in the backline and have shown us some good defensive moments so far this season. The team averages 1.34 xGA so far this season, and will be motivated to show us that it is solid at the back.
The visitors need to keep their goal safe if they want to win all 3 points. So the xGA season average of 1.23 will need to be kept as close to 0 as possible for today’s match if Benfica wants all 3 points.
