After a close-fought first leg in their Champions League round of 16 tie, Zenit St. Petersburg and Benfica are set to square off in round two with just one goal separating them. They had a knock-down, drag-out battle of a match in the first leg in Portugal that ended 1-0 in Benfica's favor, and now Zenit hope that their own home cooking can help them overcome that deficit in the second leg and propel them to the quarterfinals.
