BENFICA coach Jorge Jesus is preparing for a flurry of goals at the Estadio da Luz when his team face Everton in the Europa League.
Although Everton have won both of their Group I matches to emerge as the early leaders, Benfica can join them on six points by making the best of home advantage tonight.
Jesus knows Everton are proving prolific scorers in Europe, with a 4-0 win over AEK Athens followed by a 2- 1 victory against BATE Borisov.
Jesus said: “Everton will certainly play to win, so it will be a game with many goals. I hope they are mostly in favour of Benfica.”
Striker Javier Saviola is also optimistic about the prospects for the Portuguese giants.
“Benfica can do big things in Europe,” he said.
“Everton are a difficult and tough team. We know that if we are not concentrated they will create problems for us.
“We are confident and know the importance of this match.”
