Benfica vs Real Sociedad Prediction
Benfica are yet to win in the Champions League this season, losing to RB Salzburg and Inter – whilst failing to score a goal in the competition.
Their form in Portugal has been far more promising, winning seven from the opening eight matches and sit second in the table behind Sporting Lisbon.
On the other hand, Real Sociedad have managed to pick up four points from their opening two UCL matches, beating Salzburg and holding last season’s finalists, Inter, to a draw.
The La Liga side have also won four of their last five league matches and are just four points from the Champions League qualification places.
With this said, we expect the Spanish side to hand Benfica their third straight European defeat and increase their chances of progressing to the round of 16.
Prediction: Benfica 1-2 Real Sociedad
Benfica vs Real Sociedad Betting Tips
- Mikel Oyarzabal To Score @ 13/5
- Nicolas Otamendi To Be Booked @ 49/20
- Combined Bet Builder Odds: 9/1
Benfica vs Real Sociedad Betting Tips (1): Mikel Oyarzabal To Score @ 13/5
The Spaniard is Sociedad’s joint highest scorer so far, contributing with five goals (all competitions) and is also one of two players to score for the club in Europe.
Four of the 26-year-old’s goals have come in the last five matches, meaning he is on a hot run of form which could be crucial for tonight’s clash.
With that said, we expect the Real Sociedad winger to be on the scoresheet once again at 13/5, is a vert attractive price for your Champions League bet builder.
Benfica vs Real Sociedad Betting Tips (2): Nicolas Otamendi To Be Booked @ 49/20
The Argentinian has been renowned for his hard-hitting defensive style and has picked up three yellow cards this season.
One of these cards has come in the Champions League and given the increase in European bookings, an additional card could come Otamendi’s way.
At 49/20, choosing the former Manchester City defender is a strong bet for this fixture and takes this combination to an enticing 9/1.
