PSG vs Benfica Match Preview and Team News
PSG
PSG will aim to secure 3 points in the next meeting with Benfica on Tuesday, October 11. The French club couldn’t win the last match against the same opposition last Thursday. An own goal from Danilo Pereira leveled the game after an early lead given by Messi. PSG is currently leading Group H in the Champions League. PSG scored eight goals in the last five matches, and 5 of them were scored in the first half. PSG conceded only three goals in the previous five fixtures, with 2 of them coming in the first 45 minutes. Lionel Messi finally shows his form and scores important goals. He creates a lot of problems for the opposing defenders. Kylian Mbappe is a world-class player, has incredible speed, and makes a difference on the field. Renato Sanches (Minor Knock), Timothée Pembélé (Cruciate Ligament Injury), Presnel Kimpembe (Hamstring Injury), and Nuno Mendes (Hamstring Injury) will not be taking part for PSG manager Christophe Galtier.
Benfica
It will be a mighty challenge for Benfica to avoid a loss on the upcoming trip to Paris. Schmidt’s men gave a spirited fight to PSG in the last game, and they managed to avoid a defeat. However, a more comprehensive performance would be required to trouble the same team in their own backyard. Benfica is currently in the second position of Group H with the same number of points as their upcoming rivals. Benfica scored nine goals in the last five games. They scored 5 of them in the second half. Benfica’s defense has been excellent in the recent games as they conceded just two goals in the last five fixtures, and both of them were conceded in the first half. Petar Musa finally shows his proper form and scores important goals. He creates a lot of problems for the opposing defenders. Enzo Fernandez has the right role in the team, he moves great in the middle of the field, and it isn’t easy to take the ball away from this guy. In an otherwise available group of players, there is only the lone fitness problem for the Benfica manager Roger Schmidt to contend with. Lucas Veríssimo (Ruptured cruciate ligament) misses out for this game.
