Benfica finished the group stage with nine goals scroed and only two conceded.<\/p><p>Especially highlighted by their 6-0 thrashing of Auckland City. Chelsea managed six goals but also let in three, including a 3-1 defeat to Flamengo. Hence, each side&rsquo;s willingness to push forward makes the over 3.5 goals market plausible. Expect goals from both ends and potentially fast-paced exchanges throughout the match.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benfica vs Chelsea Player Picks<\/h2><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Pedro Neto to score anytime @ +400 as per BetMGM:<\/a><\/h3><p>Pedro Neto has caught the eye of Chelsea fans and beyond at this tournament. He has found the net a total of two times in two of Chelsea&rsquo;s three group games. He scored against LAFC and then against Flamengo before his team fell behind.&nbsp;<\/p><p>His pace, positional intelligence, and chemistry with teammates, enhance his appeal in the anytime scorer market. He even has been backed by the Chelsea staff with some &lsquo;eye-catching&rsquo; descriptions. At +400, the odds look risky but it also reflects a decent payout.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Angel Di Maria to score twice or more @ +525 as per BetMGM:<\/a><\/h3><p>Di Mar&iacute;a&rsquo;s three goals from two of Benfica&rsquo;s group stage games in this tournament have all come from penalties. Even so, he remains Benfica&rsquo;s designated spot-kick taker and continues to dictate in the final third. At age 37, he&rsquo;s still producing personal bests. He registered 18 goals and 10 assists last season.&nbsp;<\/p><p>He also remains central to Benfica&rsquo;s momentum after his vintage performance in their win over Bayern Munich. Given his role and historic accuracy from 12 yards, backing him to score at any time at +525 appears risky but justified.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/revealed-mind-blowing-details-of-cristiano-ronaldos-mega-492m-al-nassr-contract\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Revealed: Mind-Blowing Details of Cristiano Ronaldo&rsquo;s Mega &pound;492M Al-Nassr Contract &ndash; Portuguese Superstar Set To Earn &pound;488,000 per DAY<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benfica vs Chelsea Predictions<\/h2><p>Expect a thrilling 5&#8209;goal affair with Chelsea getting awar with the win by a narrow margin. Both teams have conceded regularly, and their explosive offenses suggest a shootout atmosphere. Chelsea&rsquo;s firepower is powered by Neto&rsquo;s form and Delap pressing high.
