SL Benfica W host Bayern Munich W in the UEFA Women's Champions League tonight, with the home side having come through their most recent match in this competition with a 2-1 win, while the visitors could only manage a 2-2 draw in the same competition, despite having swept to victory after victory in the league before that. SL Benfica W are unbeaten in 5 straight matches, and at home they play with confidence, especially in the first half where they have scored in almost every match and have tended to take the lead first. Bayern Munich W are also unbeaten in 5 straight matches, but their form in this competition has just stuttered with a draw, and away from home they do not start as strongly as they do at home, because in first halves on the road they have led, drawn and trailed in roughly equal measure. This game is likely to open with the home side defending in an organised block and waiting for counter-attacking chances through the pace of their forward line, while the visitors will have more of the ball and gradually push the game up the pitch. But the first half and second half are likely to look quite different, because the home side often have the edge in the opening period, while the visitors tend to apply more and more pressure after the break.
