Benfica vs Barcelona

Barcelona’s fortunes took another swing in the wrong direction on Wednesday, as Benfica defeated the troubled Catalan team 3-0 in Champions League group stage action.

It adds to the pressure on Koeman, who has been heavily criticised and could be fired as a result of a similarly poor start to the LaLiga season.

Loses

Benfica vs Barcelona

With a 3-0 loss to Benfica, Barcelona has had their worst ever start to a Champions League campaign.

Following a 3-0 loss at Nou Camp against Bayern Munich in their first Champions League encounter of the season, they have now lost their first two games in the competition for the first time ever.

Benfica vs Barcelona

Benfica was the superior team from start to finish, and they deserved all three points. Darwin Nunez scored two goals for Benfica, while Rafa Silva scored the other.

Barcelona lacked creativity, especially in the last third, and Eric Garcia’s late dismissal summed up their performance. Lisbon, like Quique Setien before him, is likely to be Ronald Koeman’s final city as Barcelona’s head coach.

Benfica vs Barcelona

Barcelona will face Benfica in a UEFA Champions League encounter at Estádio da Luz in Lisbon on Thursday, September 30. The competition began with a 0-0 draw between Dynamo Kyiv and the Portuguese team. They will, however, have to elevate their game if they are to take any points from this match.

Barcelona, on the other hand, was totally outplayed 0-3 by Bayern Munich in their first UCL match and cannot afford a repeat performance against Benfica. The Catalan champions are coming off a 3-0 victory against Levante in their local league.
