What Juventus need to finish in Champions League top eight after 2-0 Benfica victory

Juventus gave themselves a big boost in the race to finish in the top eight of the Champions League table with their 2-0 victory over Benfica on Wednesday night, but the Bianconeri still need favours from several sides in the final round of league phase fixtures if they are to qualify directly for the round of 16. 

Goals from Khephren Thuram and Weston McKennie gave the Old Lady a 2-0 win against Jose Mourinho’s Benfica at the Allianz Stadium in the seventh round of league phase fixtures on Wednesday night.
