We can win there, but i don't expect an easy game. And to be honest, this should be our most complicated game in the group stages.
Benfica has started the season well, but faces enormous pressure after have been knocked out to Braga in the UEFA Europa League Cup and have finished so many points behind Porto in the Portuguese league.
They have an interesting time, with dangerous players like Aimar, Cardozo and Saviola. Witsel, Nolito and Capdevila were good additions. Things have improved over the goalkeeper, who was a weak link. They Got rid of Roberto and brought Arthur, who did an excellent season by Braga. They usually play with a 4-1-3-2, but I think that should change against United.
I think we'lll see a little different team in this game. With Carrick, Fletcher and Giggs in midfield, although I want that Fergie stick with Ando. I'd like to see Fabio on the right back and Young playing at the right wing. It would be interesting.
And I think this is a good opportunity to Fergie finally use Berbatov. With Rooney and Chicharito in excelent moment, the Bulgarian will have fewer chances to play. And Wednesday's game is one of those.
My Starting XI: DDG, Fabio, Smalling, Rio, Evra, Young, Fletcher, Ando, Giggs, Berba, Chicharito
