Ajax’s top finisher Wout Weghorst and Mika Godts have played important roles in ensuring their attack, carefully orchestrated by John Heitinga, remains effective. Weghorst leads Ajax’s scoring charts in UEFA Champions League this season with one goal, while also excelling as their primary creator, registering zero assists in the competition so far. Ajax’s offense has also been strengthened by Oscar Gloukh, Kenneth Taylor and Davy Klaassen, who have provided crucial contributions in the final third.

Meanwhile, the attacking efforts of Benfica, under Jose Mourinho’s management, have been driven by Vangelis Pavlidis, the team’s primary goal threat, and Franjo Ivanovic, both of whom have delivered in crucial moments. Pavlidis has already scored one goal in UEFA Champions League this season, with Sudakov topping their assist tally in the competition with two.
