Benfica have been rampant this season, with their only defeat in all competitions coming against Barcelona. As Águias will relish the opportunity to register their first points on the board in a game they are expected to win.
Rosengard have had a season to forget, with their league title defense going horribly wrong. They finished the regular season in 12th spot and will not participate in continental football next season.
Benfica have been highly effective in attack, particularly at home this season and we are backing Filipa Patao's side to claim a comfortable win.
