Benfica vs Maccabi Haifa Prediction

Benfica are in brilliant form at the moment and are on an incredible 15-game winning streak. They have won their last nine games on home turf and will fancy their chances ahead of this one. The Israeli outfit are also playing well at the moment, winning their last three games on the bounce and going unbeaten in their last five. The sheer gulf in class and quality should, however, see the home side win here.
