Zenit St. Petersburg had a very good start in Champions League, proof that they won four points after the first two matches. After that, they lost the next two against Leverkusen. So the russian side has four points and a negative goal difference of 3-4, being on the third position. They need a victory here to maintain their chances for the second place alive.

Benfica started very bad this campaign, losing the first two games, but they showed us a good attitude, winning four points against Monaco so they are back in business. The portuguese side has four points and a weaker goal difference, 2-5 at the moment. They have only one option here, to win the game, otherwise their chances will be destroyed.

Zenit vs Benfica echipe probabile:
Zenit (4-4-2): Lodygin – Anyukov, Garay, Lombaerts, Criscito – Shatov, Garcia, Witsel, Ryazantsev – Hulk, Rondon.
Benfica (4-4-2): Cesar – Benito, Luisao, Jardel, Almeida – Gaitan, Cristante, Perez, Salvio – Jonas, Talisca.

Prediction: Benfica +1.0 AH @ 1.42
We will probably see a very tight game between these two sides. We expect Benfica to continue their good form and we also expect them to get at least a draw. If they will lost by a margin of exactly one goal, our money will be refunded.
