Buoyed by a 3-0 win over Vitoria Guimaraes, Benfica will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League round 4. The Eagles are eyeing their fourth consecutive win in all competitions, but Wednesday’s clash will be anything but a walk in the park for Jose Mourinho’s troops. Both Leandro Barreiro and Andreas Schjerlderup are pushing for a start, while all Amar Dedic, Alexander Bah, and Bruma miss out with injuries.
The Bundesliga outfit, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 3-0 loss to Bayern Munich, but given the number of absentees in the visiting team, home win should be considered. All Tape, Tella, Palacios, Tillman, Lucas, and Fernandez are out of contention with injuries for the visiting side. In their last encounter in the elite competition, back in 2014, the two teams played out a goalless draw.
This Champions League match will be played on Wednesday 5 November 2025 at 20:00.
