📖 The Preview

Benfica at home in a Europa League knockout is a seriously tough ask for anyone, and Aarhus just aren't built to handle that pressure. The numbers back it up heavily, with Benfica carrying a 72% chance of winning, and their home advantage in a one-off European tie is massive. Aarhus will nick one, which keeps it interesting, but Benfica have the quality and the crowd behind them to put three past a side whose patchy recent form doesn't inspire much confidence. A comfortable 3-1 is the call.
