RB Leipzig hosts Benfica in round 5 of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, November 27th at Red Bull Arena (Leipzig)
The German football club Rasenballsport Leipzig is currently one of the leaders in the standings of the German Bundesliga. Thirty-two-year-old German specialist Julian Nagelsmann coaches the Bulls. His men play quite confidently and boldly in the attack. The matches of RB Leipzig in Bundesliga ended with Over 2.5 goals scored in nine of twelve cases. Currently, the men of Julian Nagelsmann are in second place in the standings with twenty-four points and the total goal difference of 33:13. After four rounds played in the Champions League group stage, RB Leipzig is expected to take the first position in the Group G standings. The team of Julian Nagelsmann won three out of four meetings. But the Bulls unexpectedly lost only to French Lyon.

Portuguese Benfica has not lost a chance of reaching the playoffs after four matches of the Champions League group stage of the 2019/20 season. However, it will be very difficult for the Eagles to do this because they must beat German RB Leipzig and St. Petersburg Zenit at home. Besides, a lot depends on other rivals and their results. This group with equal teams is very difficult. Now Portuguese Benfica is in the last fourth place of Group G with three points scored and the total goal difference of 5:9. The team of Bruno Lage lost to the men of Julian Nagelsmann in the first home match (1-2). In the second match of the Champions League group stage, Benfica lost to Zenit St. Petersburg away with a 1-3 score, but it beat French Lyon in the next home round (2-1). In the fourth match, the men of Bruno Lage have lost to the same Lyon with a 1-3 score.
As for the upcoming match, I propose to bet on the next outcome - “Benfica to score under 1.0 goal.” German RB Leipzig failed one home game in this Champions League (against French Lyon). In the last sixth round of the Champions League group stage, the Bulls will have a very hard visit to France. As it turned out, Lyon is an uncomfortable rival for the Germans. Therefore, Leipzig needs to gain a calm and confident victory in a game with Portuguese Benfica! I do not think that the men of Bruno Lage will score more than one goal in this match. And most likely, the visitors will not score at all, given the tournament tasks of RB Leipzig. The hosts are higher in terms of skills and can cause problems only on their own, having played poorly in defense.
Prediction for the match: Benfica to score under 1.0 goal
