On October 20, the match of the third round of the Champions League group stage will take place, in which Portuguese Benfica will play at home with German Bayern Munich. The forecast for this match is given by Alexander Mostovoy, a well-known former football player of Spartak Moscow, Spanish Celta and the Russian national team.
Benfica became only the third Portuguese team last season, but this season Jorge Jesus' team looks quite powerful and stable, leading in the Primeira Liga, scoring 21 points in eight rounds. The Eagles' attack stands out especially, as they score more than any other opponent in the domestic arena. In the Champions League, the Lisbon team also started well, first drawing in Kiev with Dynamo (0:0), after which they defeated Barcelona (3:0) on their field.
Bayern traditionally have no equal in the Bundesliga. For some time, Bayer managed to go on an equal footing with Munich, but last weekend the team of Julian Nagelsmann tore Leverkusen away with a score of 5:1. In the Champions League, the Bavarian car is also doing fine – crushing victories on the road over Barcelona (3:0) and at home over Dynamo (5:0).
No matter how strong Benfica is now, it will not be able to stop Bayern. The Munich team just moved to the Bayer skating rink a few days ago, after which they could just rest and wait for the next victim. In the home match, Lisbon, of course, should score, but no more. Alexander Mostovoy is betting on a confident victory for the guests.
