Champions League Benfica vs PAOK 21/08/2018

Champions League Benfica vs PAOK Thessaloniki Prediction

Benfica started their 2018-2019 season well, with the Lisbon club winning 2 first-leg games against Vitoria Guimaraes (3-2) at home and at Boavista (2-0) on Saturday night. The leader of the Liga Sagrès has spent his European tour with difficulty triumphing the Turkish club Fenerbahçe (1-0 and 1-1) after a double confrontation stressful. PAOK will also be a formidable opponent despite notoriety on the European scene. Spartak Moscow ended the Greek club’s 5-match winning streak. Indeed, the Moscow club nearly eliminated the PAOK Salonika, losing little in Greece (3-2) and just missing the qualification during the return match in Russia (0-0). Unbeaten since July 2, the PAOK may represent a threat to Benfica who will make the difference in the first leg at the stadium of Luz to travel more serenely in Greece.
