Real Sociedad vs Benfica Prediction
Benfica continue to struggle in the Champions League this season, losing to RB Salzburg, Inter and Real Sociedad. The Portuguese side are yet to score a goal in Europe and have conceded four.
However, life in the Liga Portgual has been far more fruitful, as Benfica sit second and have scored 21 goals in the opening 10 matches.
On the other hand, Real Sociedad have managed to pick up seven points from their opening three UCL matches – meaning they sit top of Group D.
The La Liga side have lost just two of their last 11 fixtures, but Imanol Alguacil’s side are coming off a 1-0 defeat to Barcelona.
With this in mind, we think Real Sociedad will repeat the result from the last meeting against Benfica, where they came out as 1-0 victors. But, as they are now the home side – the La Liga side will win more convincingly.
Prediction: Real Sociedad 2-0 Benfica

Real Sociedad vs Benfica Betting Tips (1): Takefusa Kubo To Score @ 18/5
The Japanese winger has evolved into one of the brightest prospects in Europe, as he becomes a La Liga regular at just 22-years of age.
So far, Kubo has scored five goals in all competitions, while also contributing with three assists – helping Real Sociedad to top of Group D and seventh in La Liga.
With that in mind, we think picking the 22-year-old to score could be a strong addition to your Real Sociedad vs Benfica bet builder.
Real Sociedad vs Benfica Betting Tips (2): Real Sociedad To Win @ 3/4
As previously mentioned, Benfica are yet to win a Champions League match this season and even find the back of their opposition’s net.
The Portuguese side could struggle on Wednesday evening, as Real Sociedad are yet to lose in the Champions League this season.
Given that statistic, here at SportsLens we predict another victory of the La Liga side and including it in your Champions League bet takes this bet builder to 22/5.
