Chelsea began their new Champions League campaign against Bayern Munich but failed to earn any points, falling 1–3.

Despite the setbacks, the Blues sit eighth in the table with eight points after six rounds.

Benfica, meanwhile, has already changed head coach following their opening Champions League fixture against Qarabağ. The Eagles lost 2–3 at home, prompting the appointment of José Mourinho. The “Special One” has made a solid start in Lisbon, with two wins and a draw. Benfica currently sits third in the Portuguese league with 17 points, just one behind the top two, promising a fierce domestic title race.
