Benfica Capable Of Seeing Off Copenhagen

Benfica play host to FC Copenhagen tonight in a game in which nothing less than victory will do for either side if they wish to retain genuine ambitions of a place in the last 16 of the Champions League.

It's been an indifferent season for Benfica both domestically and in Europe to date, but they are usually strong at home, having won al four Portuguese league games at the Estadio da Luz this season.

FC Copenhagen may have seen off Manchester United in their last game, but that win was against an understrength team and the trip to Lisbon looks an altogether tougher proposition.

Players like Simao, Nuno Gomes, Konstantinos Katsouranis and Petit should see Benfica home.

Benfica were particularly poor at Braga on saturday and with José Viega still mouthing off in the press they have unwanted distractions I think it will be a 0-0 draw tonight just as it was when these teams met in Copenhagen earlier in the season.

Benfica to edge it although i'll be over the moon if it's a draw

sdrawrof · 11-21-2006, 11:15 PM

its between Benfica and ManU, whoever wins that game qualifies.

Matt the Thrasher · 11-22-2006, 02:22 PM

I was way off the mark there , game was over after 20 mins ,Copenhagen were dreadful.

theo kawala · 11-22-2006, 05:42 PM

So what was the score?

Matt the Thrasher · 11-22-2006, 06:08 PM

3-1, Benfica were 3 up in 20 minutes , Copenhagen got one back in the second half.

theo kawala · 11-23-2006, 04:33 PM

Who scored then?

Matt the Thrasher · 11-24-2006, 03:40 PM

The Benfica goals were scored by Leo & Micolli (2) the 1st & 3rd goals were down to rank bad defending.

Benfica will have me as a supporter when they play Man U. Hopefully Celts 1st then Benfica!

theo kawala · 11-25-2006, 08:05 AM

Can Copenhagen get UEFA football, If Man U lose? and they win.

sdrawrof · 11-25-2006, 05:00 PM

they will still be 4th on points

Benfica 10
Celtic 9
ManU 9
Kopenhavn 7

if that were to happen. more then likely celtic will top the group with 12.

theo kawala · 11-28-2006, 08:07 AM

I feel like Celtic will top the group but who will get second thats the question.

sdrawrof · 11-28-2006, 11:34 PM

I maintain my prediction from before that Celtic will go through and ManU wont. On december 6th, history will repeat itself.

theo kawala · 11-29-2006, 07:28 AM

So are you going for Celtic and Benfica?
