Monaco will host Benfica at the Stade Louis II in a crucial Champions League<\/a> playoff on Wednesday. The match is set for February 12, 2025, at 11 PM. Both teams will battle for a place in the next stage, making this a highly competitive clash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monaco\u2019s Struggles in 2025<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Monaco have not been in their best form recently. They have lost five of their last nine games. The team conceded 11 goals in their last four matches, showing defensive weakness. Their 4-1 loss to PSG<\/a> over the weekend dropped them out of Ligue 1\u2019s top three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Champions League, they finished 17th in the league phase after a rough run. A 3-0 defeat to Inter Milan and a 3-2 loss to Benfica contributed to their struggles. Monaco have only won once in eight games against Portuguese teams, which is worrying for their fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benfica\u2019s Turnaround<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Benfica are in a better position. They suffered a humiliating 5-4 loss to Barcelona and a 3-1 defeat to Casa Pia. However, they responded well by beating Juventus 2-0 away, securing their playoff spot. They followed up with back-to-back 3-2 victories over Estrela and Moreirense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their performance against French teams is also promising. Benfica have won 10 of their last 13 games against French clubs. This is their first time facing the same team at two different stages of a Champions League<\/a> campaign. Given their strong form, they will be confident ahead of this clash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head-to-Head History<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Benfica have dominated recent encounters with Monaco. They took four points off Monaco in the 2014 group stage. In November, they won 3-2 at the Stade Louis II. The Portuguese side will aim to repeat their success and progress to the next round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monaco, on the other hand, have struggled against Benfica and Portuguese teams. Their only win against a Portuguese side was against Sporting Lisbon in 1997. History is not on their side, but they still have quality players to make this tie competitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Monaco<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Predicted Outcome<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Benfica\u2019s current form gives them an edge. They have won four of their last five Champions League away games. However, winning three straight away games in the competition has not been done since the tournament\u2019s rebranding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monaco are struggling, but they are still a dangerous team at home. Their attack remains strong, and they will push for a win. However, their defensive problems could cost them. Benfica\u2019s momentum and historical dominance over Monaco suggest they have the upper hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
