Benfica
Benfica have shown impressive form recently, winning their last four matches across all competitions after suffering two consecutive losses. Their recent run includes notable victories in both the Primeira Liga and the Champions League, with a particularly strong away performance against Juventus. The team's attacking prowess is evident, having scored 14 goals in their last six games, averaging 2.33 goals per match. However, their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding 12 goals in the same period. The high-scoring nature of Benfica's matches is noteworthy, with an average of 4.33 total goals per game and 67% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals. The thrilling 5-4 defeat to Barcelona stands out as a particularly goal-rich encounter. Despite the occasional defensive lapse, Benfica have managed two clean sheets in their last six outings, demonstrating their ability to shut out opponents when required.

Recent home/away form
Benfica
Benfica have shown mixed form at home recently, winning four of their last six matches at the Estádio da Luz. Their attacking prowess has been particularly impressive, with the team scoring an average of 3 goals per game and all six matches featuring over 2.5 goals. The standout fixture was a high-scoring Champions League encounter against Barcelona, which ended in a thrilling 5-4 defeat for the Portuguese side. Defensively, Benfica have been somewhat inconsistent, managing three clean sheets but also conceding five goals in a single match. Their goal difference of +9 over these six games highlights their overall offensive strength, despite the occasional defensive lapse. Notably, Benfica have not played out any draws during this period, with each match resulting in either a win or a loss for the home side.
AS Monaco
AS Monaco have been struggling with their away form recently, enduring a challenging run of six matches without a victory. The team are currently on a three-game losing streak, with their most recent defeat being a heavy 4-1 loss to Paris Saint Germain in Ligue 1. Monaco's defensive frailties are evident, having conceded 13 goals in their last six away games, an average of 2.17 per match, while failing to keep a single clean sheet. Their attacking output has also been lacklustre, managing just 0.83 goals per game. Notably, two-thirds of their away matches have seen over 2.5 goals, indicating high-scoring affairs despite Monaco's struggles. The 3-0 defeat to Inter Milan in the Champions League stands out as a particularly disappointing result, highlighting the team's difficulties against top-tier opposition on the road.
