Benfica are the in-form side coming into this Europa League contest. They are top of the league phase on 9 points and have scored 10 and conceded just 2. They have beaten Celtic 4-1 and Omonia 4-1. They are averaging over 3 goals per home game. They have Vangelis Pavlidis up front along with Andreas Schjelderup. Then it's Fredrik Aursnes and Manu Silva in midfield.

There are a few injury concerns for Marco Silva. Leandro Barraineo is out for a couple of months. Enzo Barrenecha is a doubt and Dodi Lukebakio suffered a minor issue and had to be subbed last weekend. There is a possibility of Rafa Silva coming back which would give them full strength attack.

Lech aren't in good shape. They are 2nd bottom on a point. They have scored once and conceded 9. 11 games in a row they have conceded in. They have a lot of absentees. Three players who are absent are Mikael Ishak, Wojciech Monka and Ali Gholizadeh. The first half has seen 7 of the 9 goals conceded.

Benfica won both the previous encounters in 2020 4-0, 4-2. So it's a home win in this one.
