The Dutch are one of only three teams to go through the first round by winning all their games (the other two being Liverpool and Bayern Munich). Their good performance has generated good expectations and that is why they are the main favorites to win this UEFA Champions League Round of 16.
Benfica, on the other hand, are the least favorites to advance to the next round. However, there is one detail that should not be overlooked: this team was able to advance to the round of 16 after being in a very difficult group together with Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Dinamo Kiev. The Portuguese stayed in second place, relegating the “Culés”, so they are a team that can cause a surprise, as they did by leaving Barcelona out.
