Make we gist small! As Bayern Munich and Benfica dey prepare to face each other for di Club World Cup wey go happen for Bank of America Stadium on Tuesday, 24 June, wahala fit dey o! Di Germans don already enter di knockout stage, but as for Benfica, dem only need draw to follow dem reach di next round.
Now, no be say na game wey we go just dey play anyhow. Bayern don show strong form, dem lose only two matches for di last 25 games wey dem play across all competitions. Plus, dem no don ever lose to Benfica in all di 14 times wey dem don meet before (e be like say Benfica fit just dey prepare for di worst!).
Last-last, Benfica don enjoy one shining moment against Auckland City wey dem klob 6-0, but their last five games fit make dem fear di hammer wey di Germans dey bring. Dem don lose 10 of di 13 meetings before, so di pressure dey on dem to deliver this time.
No mistake am, for di expected lineup of Benfica, we go see Trubin, Aursnes, Otamendi and di rest ready to guard di goal. On di other hand, Bayern go set field with Neuer, Kimmich, and Harry Kane wey dey always find back of di net (dem fit carry di ball enter anyhow!).
Dis match no go just be about di tactics but plenty goals too, as Bayern don score over 2.5 goals for 11 of dia last 12 matches (omo, if dem no sabi score, dem no go dey Bayern!). Olise, di man of di moment, go continue to shine as e don dey put no fewer than 43 goals/assists so far for him debut season.
Even though neither team dey under pressure to push hard, dem sabi say winner go take di top spot of Group C wey go give dem better matchup for di knockout stage (Flamengo or Chelsea, anybody fit come). But wit all di attacking options wey Bayern get, e fit hard for Benfica to hold dem down.
Di koko be say, dis match fit decide who dey go home with crown of group champion. Will Bayern hold their ground, or will di Portuguese side do di unexpected? Na so we go sabi by di end of di match o!
