High odds soccer bet predictions for underdogs

Benfica hosts Barcelona at the legendary Estadio da Luz in Lisbon in a match from the Champions League 1/8-finals. Stay with us and these High odds soccer bet predictions for underdogs we are about to offer you. Here we go!

These two teams made a terrific game in the league stage when Barca achieved an incredible 5-4 win at Da Luz. This match went through various different scenarios before Raphinha’s winning goal in the last few seconds. It was arguably the best Champions League game of the season.

Benfica had to go through playoffs to secure their place in the 1/8-finals. The Eagles faced Monaco and managed to outscore the French team. The second leg in Lisbon ended with a 3-3 draw which was another proof that Benfica’s defense is far from perfect.

The Greek striker Vangelis Pavlidis is the huge threat in Benfica’s attack. Pavlidis scored a hat-trick during the spectacular game against Barcelona in the league stage. At this moment he has 7 goals in 10 matches in the Champions League.

Barcelona are regarded as one of the major contenders for the trophy this season. The Catalans seriously improved under the management of Hansi Flick. They finished second in the league stage, and showed a lot of promise.

Robert Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal and Raphinha are expected to lead the attack once again while Flick has to decide between Dani Olmo and Gavi for the line-up. Pedri and Frenkie de Jong look untouchable in the starting eleven at the moment. In defense most likely Flick will pick his usual center-back duo – Inigo Martinez and Pau Cubarsi.

That’s the High odds soccer bet predictions for underdogs for the Champions League 1/8-finals between Benfica and Barcelona. Even if these two teams don’t repeat their performance from the league stage, we still expect a good game between them.
