Benfica return to action today to play AVS in their second and final matchday of the 2023-24 Taça da Liga group stage, aiming to book a ticket to the semifinals. The Portuguese giants only need a draw to secure the top spot in Group B and advance in the tournament.
Last time out, Roger Schmidt’s men beat Arouca 2-0 to take early control of their group in the Portuguese League Cup. The team also arrives in this game in high spirits as it’s riding on a seven-game unbeaten streak across all competitions.
AVS still have a chance to produce an upset, but the odds are stacked against them. The Vila das Aves-based outfit is currently second in the Segunda Liga (Portugal’s second division) but its fate in the domestic cup looks sealed as it lost to Arouca in its previous match.
