Benfica

The Eagles began their European campaign in the UEFA Champions League. The Lisbon-based team finished third in their group, but it was a tough journey. It wasn't until the final sixth match that Benfica defeated Salzburg 3-1 to advance to the European competitions.

In the round of 16, Benfica played against Toulouse. They won the first leg 2-1, and the second leg ended in a goalless draw. In the round of 16, the Eagles faced Rangers and won 3-2 on aggregate, thanks to a narrow 1-0 away victory. In terms of recent form, Benfica has won three out of their last five matches, drew once, and suffered one defeat, which came in their last game, losing 1-2 to Sporting.

Marseille

The French team found themselves in a challenging group in the UEFA Europa League. They were in the same group as Ajax, Brighton, and AEK. Marseille gathered 11 points in six matches, falling just two points short of the group winner. In the round of 16, they faced Shakhtar Donetsk.

The first leg ended 2-2, and Marseille confidently won 3-1 at home. In the subsequent playoff round, Marseille played against Villarreal and settled matters in the first leg by defeating the Spanish team 4-0, rendering the return leg meaningless. In terms of recent form, Marseille has only won one out of their last five matches and suffered four defeats.
