Benfica head into tonight’s Europa League clash in barnstorming form having won nine of their last 10 matches in all competitions, a run which includes a notable 2-0 win at the San Siro against AC Milan in their opening game of this season’s Europa League league phase.
The Lisbon team have scored in each of their last 28 matches in all competitions dating back to a 1-0 defeat against Real Madrid in the Champions League back in February, and are priced at 2/11 favourites for victory against the Scottish champions tonight.
Managed by Marco Silva, who took Fulham close to a European finish last season, the Eagles are currently second in the Portuguese league and have started well in Europe, having had to come through three rounds of qualifying to reach the league phase, including a 7-2 aggregate victory over another Scottish side: Hearts.

Celtic make the trip to Lisbon having lost three of their last four matches in all competitions, finally getting back to winning ways after a hat trick of successive defeats with a 2-0 winat Motherwell on Sunday lunchtime.
The win keeps Martin O’Neill’s side top of the Scottish Premiership but what was a healthy lead now only stands at two points after they fell to a 1-0 home defeat in the Old Firm derby against Rangers just before the international break.
The Scottish side entered the Europa League at the league phase stage after falling on the wrong side of a dramatic Champions League play-off round comeback, 3-0 up after the home first leg against LASK, the Austrian side won the return leg 5-1 after extra time to book their place in the Champions League at Celtic’s expense.
It wasn’t the best start to the league phase of Europe’s second tier competition for the Bhoys either, with the Glasgow side falling to a 3-1 home defeat against Hungarian side Ferencvaros.
Tonight’s clash will be the first meeting between the two sides since being drawn in the same group in the Champions League 14 years ago, when Benfica took four points from their games against Celtic, including a 2-1 win at the Estadio da Luz back in November 2012, their most recent of four consecutive away losses against tonight’s opposition.
