011 [Champions League] Benfica vs Nice

1. Analysis of core winners and losers

‌Benfica's home advantage and offensive firepower‌

Benfica has remained unbeaten (4 wins and 2 draws) in the last 6 away games, scoring 14 goals and conceding only 4 goals, with stable offensive and defensive efficiency. He is more tactical and aggressive when fighting at home, using high-post pressing and quick conversion of attacks. The forward Pavlites has been in a hot state recently (scoring consecutive goals in the warm-up match, and throwing a hat against Bayern in the Club World Cup). The success rate of midfielder Enzo Fernandez's long pass reached 93%, and he can accurately dispatch the offensive direction. Historical data shows that Benfica scored 50% of goals in the past 70-85 minutes and has the ability to make a comeback.

‌Nice's away defense risks‌

Nice has obvious away defense loopholes recently, with 1.6 goals averaging 6 games. The new central defender combination (Kojo Oppen and Takumi Watanabe) only practiced for 3 days, and there were shortcomings in the high-altitude defense; the main goalkeeper Burka was injured, and the substitute goalkeeper Diouf lacked experience in European competitions, and many save mistakes were made in the warm-up match. Tactical relies on wing breakthroughs and set pieces (41% offense), but the interception ability of the midfield has dropped by 15%, and the ball control system facing Benfica may be out of control.

2. Key points of tactical game

‌Benfica targeted strike: he will focus on attacking Nice's weakness on the left and use Rafa Silva's 34.2km/h sprint speed to hit back to Nice's left-back Van Defen, who is chasing slowly.

‌Nice counterattack dependency‌: Forward Dorbery has excellent finishing ability in the penalty area, but the team’s overall offensive efficiency is unstable. When facing high-pressure pressing away, it is easy to fall into a single fight.

‌Sports Critical Point‌: Nice’s defensive slip-tower success rate plummeted to 39% after 70 minutes, while Benfica’s goal rate during this period was as high as 50%.

3. Entertainment score prediction: ‌

‌Basic:

Benfica has the advantage in home offense and defense data, and the hidden dangers temporarily pieced together on the Nice defense line are difficult to resist the home team's continuous impact;

Nice draws 1-1 at home in the first leg, and the second leg needs to take the initiative to attack, which may expose the backcourt space, creating opportunities for Benfica to counterattack;

Based on the above factors, Pidan is optimistic that Benfica will not be defeated at home in this game.
