All eyes will be on Stamford Bridge when Chelsea and Benfica face each other in the Premier League round 2. The Blues aim to recover from a 3-1 loss to Brighton, but Tuesday’s game will be anything but a walk in the park for Enzo Maresca’s troops. The bad news for the hosts is that key player Cole Palmer has joined the likes of Adarabioyo, Colwill, Delap, Essugo, and Fofana in the recovery room.
The Eagles, on the other hand, aim to impress on Jose Mourinho’s Champions League derby. Former Benfica boss Bruno Lage got fired following a shocking 3-2 loss to Qarabag and, no doubt, the Primeira Liga vice-champions should be happy with one point from the Stamford Bridge showdown. Given Chelsea’s aforementioned absentees, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. All Bah, Bruma, Felix, and Manu are out of contention with injuries for the visiting side.
This Champions League match will be played on Tuesday 30 September 2025 at 20:00.
