We said: Monaco 1-1 Benfica

Monaco are winless in their last three home games against Portuguese clubs, and even though their form at the Stade Louis II has been brilliant, and they sit third in the 36-team standings, it will be a difficult test. That is because Benfica's recent performances have given plenty for them to be confident about, frustrating Bayern for large periods, thrashing Porto, and entering seventh heaven at the weekend, so they will feel they can take something here.
