Benfica Lisbon v Bayern Munich Betting Tips [24 June 2025]

It is matchday three at the FIFA Club World Cup, and Benfica are set to take on Bayern Munich in Group C. Bayern have already secured their knockout place, while Benfica need to avoid defeat to confirm their slot. We have a prediction for the match below.

At the close of Round 2, Benfica had opened a three-point gap after beating Auckland City 6-0. Now they only need to match Boca Juniors’ result to progress. Having garnered four points, a win here would guarantee them finishing top.

While the Portuguese giants are the underdogs in this game, they are unbeaten inside 90 minutes in their last 15 matches. 

While it is a debut World Cup appearance for Benfica, Bayern Munich are experienced at this stage, having won the title twice. Their place in the last 16 is confirmed after two opening wins against Auckland City and Boca Juniors.

The German heavyweights made history as the biggest winners at this stage after their 10-0 win over Auckland City. They followed it up with a 2-1 victory over Boca Juniors on matchday two.

After the fast start, Bayern need just a point to confirm the top spot, and with their record against Benfica, it seems they'll head into the last 16 unbeaten. The Germans have five straight wins against Benfica.

Bayern Munich have their place in the knockouts secure, and Benfica will be looking to join them. A draw will work for both teams here; Bayern topping the group and Benfica qualifying for the last 16. Either way, this seems like a game to bet on goals on both ends.

While Benfica cuts across as a solid side, they don’t look like a team to rattle Bayern Munich. The Germans have been commanding at this competition, and we still expect them to dominate here. Our prediction for Benfica v Bayern Munich is for Bayern Munich to win and both teams to score.
