Down 0-1 to Bayern Munich and missing their star striker, the odds are stacked against Benfica reaching the Champions League semifinals heading into Wednesday’s return leg in Lisbon. Leading scorer Jonas, who has recorded 32 goals in all competitions this season, is suspended for today’s match. Bayern is also without attacking threats, as Arjen Robben remains sidelined. He, along with defenders Boateng, Badstuber and Benatia should all be out of the lineup.
