Boca and Benfica drew in their opening match of the tournament, and as things stand, Benfica has a plus-6 goal difference, while the Argentinian side have a minus-one.

Player to watch
Miguel Merentiel, Boca Juniors — The Uruguayan striker scored a stunning goal against Bayern Munich before the German giants made a comeback and managed to win against Boca Juniors in the second match of the group phase.
