Champions League Qualifiers: Benfica – Fenerbahce 27/08/2025

The 0-0 of the first leg will surely make both teams rather conservative, at least in the early stages of the game and for as long as the score remains 0-0. Benfica, however, is the better team and managed to “shut down” the first match quite comfortably, even in the last twenty minutes when they were left with ten men.
The home win at around 1.60 has no real value, but it is worth the risk when combined with BTTS. This scenario boosts the odds to around 3.50.

I expect Benfica to take control of the game and put pressure on Fener. If they manage to score first, relatively early, our combo bet will have good chances of landing. In that case, the Turkish side will have to take more risks, and the shape of the match will change drastically. After all, we are talking about teams with proven attacking quality and scoring ability, something we also saw in their friendly game a month ago at the same stadium, where Benfica won 3-2.
