- 本菲卡在最近两场欧冠主场比赛中被费耶诺德以3比1击败，并被博洛尼亚以0比0战平
- 巴塞罗那已经连续五场赢得欧冠比赛，在那场比赛中打进20球
- 作为一名主教练，巴萨主帅汉西·弗利克在24场欧冠比赛中赢得了21场胜利
巴萨将在本菲卡反弹
埃里克·加西亚在第十分钟的红牌最终让巴塞罗那在本赛季对阵摩纳哥的欧冠首场比赛中失利，但自那以后，他们没有表现出任何放缓的迹象，在赢得随后的五场欧洲比赛的同时进了20球。
不过，对于在拜仁慕尼黑观看汉西·弗利克的任何人来说，这样的表现都不足为奇，因为这位德国教练现在已经赢得了24场欧冠比赛中的21场；以88%的胜率，他是所有老板中最好的，至少在比赛中负责了10场比赛。
周六，巴萨队被赫塔菲队以1比1战平，这让他们感到沮丧，但当天他们的对手是何塞·博尔达拉斯，他以让自己的球队身体强壮、比赛糟糕而臭名昭著，弗利克的球队在里斯本不太可能面临同样的阻力。
主持人将面临更多的家庭挫折
本菲卡在欧冠联赛中表现稳健，排名第15位，进入季后赛，但在最近两场欧洲主场比赛中，他们以3比1输给费耶诺德，以0比0战平博洛尼亚，在一支着眼于榜首的球队到来之前，他们不会感到有信心。
巴塞罗那是利物浦在顶级联赛中最接近的追逐者，落后利物浦三分，本月早些时候他们以5比2击败皇家马德里，证明他们有天赋在里斯本取得胜利，继续追赶。
不过，巴萨只取得了两次欧冠零失球，所以本菲卡有可能在周二得分，客场3-1的胜利是一个正确的得分赌注。
- Benfica have been beaten 3-1 by Feyenoord and held to a 0-0 draw by Bologna in their last two Champions League home games
- Barcelona have won five straight Champions League games, scoring 20 goals in that run
- Barca boss Hansi Flick has won 21 of his 24 Champions League matches as a manager
Barca to bounce back at Benfica
A tenth-minute red card for Eric Garcia ultimately cost Barcelona in their opening Champions League game of the season against Monaco, but they have shown no signs of slowing down since, scoring 20 goals while winning their subsequent five European matches.
That level of performance should come as no surprise to anybody who watched Hansi Flick at Bayern Munich, though, as the German manager has now won 21 of his 24 Champions League matches – with his 88 per cent win-rate the best of any boss to take charge of at least ten games in the competition.
Barca were left frustrated on Saturday as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Getafe but their opponents that day were managed by Jose Bordalas, who is notorious for setting his sides up to be physical and horrible to play, with Flick’s men unlikely to face the same resistance in Lisbon.
Hosts heading for further home frustration
Benfica have enjoyed a solid Champions League campaign, sitting 15th and in the playoff places, but a 3-1 loss to Feyenoord and a 0-0 draw with Bologna in their last two home European home matches will not feel them with confidence ahead of a visit from a side eyeing top spot.
Barcelona are Liverpool’s closest pursuers in the race for top, sitting three points behind the Reds, and their 5-2 rout of Real Madrid earlier this month proves they have the talent to keep up that chase with a win in Lisbon.
Barca have managed just two Champions League clean sheets, though, so there is a chance Benfica score on Tuesday, with a 3-1 away win appealing as a correct-score bet.
