Really good series with a few flaws in the B grade
Benfica go into this match against Bayern with a strong run of 15 matches without a single defeat. However, you need to put these figures into perspective for your next betting slip. Because before the 6-0 win against Auckland, four of the matches were only drawn after 90 minutes. The cup final in Portugal against Sporting was even lost 3-1 after extra time. And in five games before the 6-0 win, the team from the Portuguese capital had never played to nil.

How good is FC Bayern Munich's current form?
In our betting tips today, we are of course also looking at the German record champions. And after two wins in Group C, they have already safely reached the round of 16. So it's quite possible that coach Vincent Kompany will only field his second string this time. Bayern got off to a flying start at the Club World Cup and celebrated their clearest victory to date at the Club World Cup with a 10:0 win over outsiders Auckland City. This was followed by a 2:1 win against Boca Juniors, which Olise secured with his all-important goal six minutes before the end.

FC Bayern against Benfica with an unblemished H2H record

Our prediction for Benfica Lisbon vs FC Bayern Munich
Two bets clearly stand out in our expert tips. Firstly, the H2H statistics speak volumes, according to which Benfica are still waiting for a win against FC Bayern. They have failed to do so 13 times against Munich. In this respect, we have come up with Tip 2 with very good odds. But the Over 2.5 also makes sense as a goal bet. After all, Munich have always scored at least two goals themselves in their last nine matches.
