Bayern Munich vs Benfica
Uefa Champions League 2018/19
Venue: Allianz Arena
Kick-off: 8pm GMT
Bayern are on the verge of reaching the knockout stages as they host a Benfica side who must go all out to win in Munich.
German champions Bayern sit top of Group E after four games, and a point will take them through to the last-16.
Benfica, meanwhile, trail second-placed Ajax by four points, so they must win their last two group games to stand any chance of avoiding an early exit from the competition.
