Benfica return to European play hoping to keep streak going

Benfica Blog
Benfica travel to Turin to take on Italian side Juventus in their seventh league game of the Champions League phase. The Lisbon side will be looking to make it three wins in a row in Europe after suffering four straight defeats, as they fight to get to the knockout round of the competition.

After suffering a disappointing past couple of weeks, which saw the club exit both the Taca da Liga and the Taca de Portugal, Benfica will look to put a stop the misery that they have caused the club's fans and get back on the right track and a victory against Juventus will go a long way.

The two clubs met last season in the competition also at Allianz stadium and Benfica came away with a 2-0 victory. Benfica will look to keep their perfect Champions League record against Juventus intact, a stretch of five games now without a draw or defeat.
