The undefeated at home this season team of Benfica has the difficult task to make up difference of 1 goal against Fenerbahce.

the main goal to his team and will pursue hit with full strength. To improve this record, however, Manchester United must win all 4 games by the end of the season, starting with an extremely tough

The mood in the camp of Liverpool is undoubtedly quite minor, since Suarez got suspended for 10 games, and the team has dropped to 5 points behind the sixth position in the standings.
