Barcelona heads into this fixture with a slender advantage, having edged out a 1-0 victory in Lisbon despite being down to ten men. This win has given Hansi Flick's squad a crucial upper hand as they aim to secure their place in the quarter-finals on home turf. The Catalan side, considered favourites to lift the Champions League trophy, had an unexpected break over the weekend. Their La Liga encounter with Osasuna was postponed following the untimely passing of their first-team doctor, allowing them some extra time to focus on their European ambitions. Meanwhile, Benfica showed resilience after their defeat in the first leg by securing a convincing 3-0 triumph against Nacional in the Portuguese Primeira Liga on Saturday. This morale-boosting victory will serve as a springboard as they gear up for their trip to Spain, determined to overturn the narrow deficit and keep their Champions League dreams alive. With both teams bringing their unique strengths and strategies into play, fans can expect a thrilling encounter as Barcelona and Benfica battle it out for a spot in the next round of Europe's premier club competition.
