Ajax - Benfica

For the second replay of the round of 16 of the Champions League, Ajax welcomes Benfica at the Johan Cruijff Arena. First match 2-2, the away goal does not apply, in case of a tie there will be an extension and if necessary the penalty shootout.

After a balanced game Ajax drew 2-2 in the first match in the Netherlands, a score that makes him a favorite to qualify. In the first half he was superior and went straight to the locker room with 2-1, but in the second half the hosts increased their speed and managed to equalize the match.
At the same time he leads the race of the Dutch championship, after 20 games is in 1st place with 63 points and in plus 2 from the second Eindhoven. In his last match, he defeated Kambour 3-2, in a match that was preceded by 2-0 but he needed a goal in the delays to get the three points.

Benfica fought it in the first match, was behind the score twice but equalized and so he drew and will go to the Netherlands to actually claim the victory to be the one to continue in the tournament.
In the domestic championship he has been out of the title for a long time, after 26 matches is in 3rd place with 58 points and now a realistic goal is the 2nd place that leads directly to the groups of the next Champions League. However, this goal is difficult after the loss of points last game against Visela, with the 1-1 leaving it at minus 6 from the second Sporting.

Ajax is extremely effective in Amsterdam and tonight has the first reason for the qualifying victory. Benfica, on the other hand, in order to have hopes, must score, so an open game is expected that will hardly remain low in the score.
