Recent form
AS Monaco
AS Monaco have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, failing to establish a consistent run of results. Their last six matches have been characterised by a pattern of alternating wins and losses, indicating a lack of stability in their performances. The team's attacking prowess is evident, with an impressive average of 1.67 goals scored per game. However, their defensive frailties are a concern, conceding 2.17 goals per match on average. Notably, Monaco have been involved in several high-scoring encounters, with 83% of their games seeing over 2.5 goals. The 4-2 victory against Auxerre and the 4-1 defeat to Paris Saint Germain stand out as particularly goal-laden affairs. Despite these defensive issues, Monaco managed to keep a clean sheet in their Champions League victory against Aston Villa, showcasing their potential to tighten up at the back when required.
Benfica
Benfica have shown impressive form recently, winning their last three matches across all competitions, including a notable Champions League victory against Juventus. The Eagles have been involved in several high-scoring affairs, with five of their last six games seeing over 2.5 goals, including a thrilling 5-4 defeat to Barcelona. Their attacking prowess is evident, having scored an impressive 17 goals in their last six matches, averaging 2.83 goals per game. However, their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding 12 goals in the same period. Despite this, Benfica have managed two clean sheets, demonstrating their ability to tighten up at the back when needed. The team's matches have been entertaining for neutrals, with an average of 4.83 total goals per game and both teams scoring in 67% of their recent fixtures.
