LIVE – Benfica v Real Madrid: Commentary, updates, goals and stats as Mourinho looks to upset former club

Jose Mourinho will take centre stage as Benfica look to claim the win they need to stand any chance of finishing the league phase in a playoff spot.

The Portuguese managed Real Madrid from May 2010 to June 2013 and is still held in high regard by club president Florentino Perez. Mourinho could do with a victory tonight after some mixed results with Benfica losing three of their last five games.

Madrid start the match round in third place in the Champions League and knowing a win would guarantee them automatic qualification for the round of 16.
