The other match on Tuesday will be Benfica versus Borussia Dortmund. BVB surprised Real Madrid as they beat them to first place in the Group Stage. The German team is struggling in the Bundesliga and lost their last match this weekend, with Raphael Guerrero scoring their only goal in a 1:2 defeat. However, we should take into account that they rested a couple of their key players, especially in defence. Their form is much different in the Champions League though as they have been scoring for fun in the Group Stage. Benfica lost a couple of their players in the transfer window, most notably Guedes, and they lost Alex Grimaldo and Salvio due to injury, while Živković is suspended.

Predicted Lineups
Ederson Moraes; Nelson Semedo, Luisao, Lindelof, Eliseu; Salvio, Fejsa, Pizzi, Cervi; Mitroglu, Jonas
Burki; Piszczek, Bartra, Sokratis, Schmelzer; Weigl, Castro, Guerreiro; Dembele, Reus, Aubameyang
Our Prediction:
This should be a tight encounter, BVB will be hoping to score at least one away goal as their defense is not very good at keeping clean-sheets recently. Result: 1:1
