There will be revenge in the air of the Principality, this Wednesday evening, for the reunion between AS Monaco and Benfica Lisbon. Two and a half months ago during the regular phase of this new formula of
Champions Leaguethe eagles came to shower the Adi Hütter team after a incredible scenario marked by disputed arbitral decisions (2-3). The pill was difficult to swallow for the Monegasques, who experienced a hollow period after this meeting.
Suffice to say that this reunion in Louis-II promises to be as electric as indeed. If ASM has its own chances, it will have to be more airtight than in its last big games. Largely beaten at the Parc des Princes against Paris Saint-Germain last Friday (1-4), the Principality club must find its defensive virtues to resist a formation still carried by the Lord Angel Di Maria. The decor is planted.
The expected compositions:
Monaco : Majecki – Vanderson, Kehrer, Salisu, Caio Henrique – Zakaria, Magassa – Akliouche, Golovin, Ben Seghir – Biereth.
Benfica : Trubin – Tomas Araujo, Antonio Silva, Otamendi, Fernandez – Florentino Luis, Aursnes, Kokcu – Di Maria, Pavlidis, Schjelderup.
Where to see the match?
This Champions League first leg dam between AS Monaco and Benfica Lisbon will be broadcast this Wednesday on Canal +, from 9 p.m. It will also be possible to look at it on the group's streaming platform, MyCanal.
