Benfica vs Qarabag Prediction & Betting Tips (16 September)

The Benfica Lisbon second in the Portuguese championship last year was forced to play the qualifications for the next Champions League this year. The Grand Rival of Sporting Lisbon had taken the measure of the OGCN 0-2/2-0 on the outward journey, before making the Fenerbahce 0-0/1-0 in the dam. In parallel, August 16, Benfica was back on Portuguese lawns to try to get their hands on the title. After a complicated success on the move in front of the Estrala Amadora 0-1 at the opening, Benfica beat Matondela 3-0 before dropping the Futebol Club of Angerca 1-2 before the truce. The LisBoets will receive Santa Clara to come on Friday.

 Qualified for the main phase of the Champions League for the second time in its history, the FK Qarabag, a reigning Azéri champion, was present in the second round of the lucky qualifications during it when falling on Shelbourne 0-3/1-0, Qarabag was also varnished in the third round against the Shkendija 0-1/5-1. To finish the A.Zoubir teammates in the dam took over the Ferencvaros 1-3/2-3. In the championship to finish, the reader is very difficult insofar as Qarabag has a late match, and necessarily already beaten Sumgayit 1-0 in her weekend to negotiate during the double-affordment against Ferencvaros. 

The Benfica Lisbon of Burno Lage lost some important boys like Carreras (Real Madrid), Arthur Cabral back in Brazil, and Kerem Aktürkoglu at the very end of the transfer window which after having scored the only goal of the double-confrontation against Fenerbahce, joined it in the last days of the transfer window. Expelled and scorer against Alverca before the truce, the ex-Olympian of Ddic has already won to the right, like the goalscorer Ivanovic (USG) and Rios (Palmeiras). Arrived at the end of the transfer window, Lukebakio is normally injured like Bruma. Coach Bruno Lage played with two attackers against Nice, and only one regularly in the league. The FK Qarabag and Kairat Almaty are the two smallest clubs present in this league phase, there is no doubt. 3 goals and 2 assists in 6 Champions League games for Leandro Andrade the Qarabag striker, a slightly lower yield for the axundzade scorer (2 goals in 6 games) when Zoubir finished with 1 goal and 2 passes.

The two will be present on the attack front. During the summer transfer window, the Qarabag lost the ex-player of Losc Yassine Benzia. Conversely, the most expensive Dani Bolt recruit (400,000th) settled on the right corridor, like MMAEE loaned by Zagreb. For the moment no injury. 

• Summary: Benfica U19 is going head to head with Qarabağ U19 starting on 16 Sept 2025 at 10:00 UTC . The match is a part of the UEFA Youth League .
