Juventus to Win<\/strong><\/td>\n5\/6 @ Bet365<\/a>
(54.5%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nWe are backing Juventus because of their superior goals-per-game (2.0 vs 1.1) and a remarkable 52.4% shot accuracy, the best in the tie. Home advantage could be decisive, especially as Benfica have lost four of their last six Champions League matches.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Both Teams To Score \u2013 Yes<\/strong><\/td>\n10\/11 @ Betfair<\/a>
(52.4%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nThere could be value here due to Juventus\u2019s tendency to concede (just one clean sheet in six) and Benfica\u2019s strong xG (14.75 from 10 matches). Both teams have attacking weapons and defensive weaknesses, making BTTS likely.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
