Now, hungry for more success, he’ll be eager to lead Bayern’s charge and is a strong contender for Group C’s top scorer.
All eyes will be on the clash between Benfica and Boca Juniors on matchday one, a match that could prove decisive in determining who progresses to the knockout rounds.
Neither side is in peak form—Benfica are winless in three matches, while Boca have failed to win in their last four during regular time.
We’re anticipating a tense and tactical encounter at Hard Rock Stadium, with Benfica narrowly claiming a 1–0 victory, possibly through in-form striker Vangelis Pavlidis, who netted 29 goals in 53 competitive appearances in the 2024–25 season.
