Benficas star man Nicolas Gaitan (right) is an injury doubt Julio Cesar and Nuno Santos are also out for the Portuguese giants, while Bayern are likely to be without Holger Badstuber, Jerome Boateng and Arjen Robben after the trio missed training on Tuesday.Medhi Benatia and Kingsley Coman did train though, and could play a part in Lisbon.Opta statsThe odds are firmly in Bayerns favour with the statistic that 68% of teams who won 1-0 at home in the first leg of a Champions League game have gone on to progress to the next round (19 out of 28).Bayern have also had the better of Benfica in previous meetings, knocking them out in each of their three previous home/away encounters in European competition (1975/76 European Cup, 1981/82 European Cup, 1995/96 UEFA Cup). Benficas Brazilian forward Jonas (centre) is suspended Bayern also went on to reach the final of the competition in each of those three encounters; something worth noting if they do head through on Wednesday night.Benfica have scored in all four of their home Champions League games this season, though, so expect goals from both sides in Lisbon.Bayern Munich are also winless in their last six away games in the Champions League knockout stages (D3 L3).BettingBenfica are up against odds of 8/1 to make the Champions League semi-finals despite having home advantage to overturn a single-goal deficit, with Bayern Munich just 8/13 to win on the night.Sky Bet find it difficult to see Pep Guardiolas men not scoring a potentially decisive away goal, with the hosts 9/2 for a clean sheet and Robert Lewandowski just 5/6 to score in 90 minutes.

Berra made 42 saves and Kris Russell scored at 1:32 of overtime, lifting the Calgary Flames to a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday night.Watching rookie Sean Nolin get roughed up by Baltimore on Friday night and subsequently get optioned back to Double A New Hampshire, I wondered about the Major League debuts of the rest of the Jays starters. Truth be told, there was only one that really stuck out. Well save that one for last. R.A. Dickeys first Major League appearnance was on April 22, 2001. This was well before he even considered throwing the knuckleball for a living. R.A. got one mop-up inning of relief for Texas in a blowout 11-2 home win over Oakland. It was a three-up , three-down affair. The most interesting thing is the catcher for the As that day was Sal Fasano, who is currently the Blue Jays roving minor league catching instructor. Lefty Mark Buehrle made his debut on July 16, 2000. He gave up one run in one inning of relief to Milwaukee. His first start three days later was far more impressive. Buehrle pitched seven innings against the Twins, giving up two runs on six hits and picking up the victory. Lefty J.A. Happ could commiserate with Nolin. Fresh off a call-up from the Ottawa Lynx of the International League on June 30, 2007, Happ got knocked around by the New York Mets. He only lasted four innings, giving up five runs, three of which were earned. He was sent back down by the Phillies after that game and wasnt called up for the rest of the season. Like Dickey, Josh Johnson debuted with a scoreless inning of relief on September 10, 2005. One year later, he was part of an historic rookie rotation with Florida. Johnson, along with Anibal Sanchez, Scott Olsen and Ricky Nolasco became the first rookie quartet in Major League history to rack up at least 10 wins apiece in one season. Brandon Morrow was the 5th pick overall in the 2006 draft by Seattle. He began his Mariners career less than a year later on April 3, 2007 versus Oakland. He pitched a scoreless inning of relief. He didnt make his first career start until the final month of the 2008 campaign on September 5 to be exact against the Yankees. Morrow was spectacular, pitching seven and two-thirds no-hit innings before Wilson Betemit broke it up. The Mariners won 3-1 and Morrow came within four outs of becoming just the second pitcher ever to throw a no-no in his first Major League start. Then you come to Ricky Romero. The lefthander made his first Major League appearance and start on April 9, 20099 versus Detroit and righthander Rick Porcello.dddddddddddd They became the first two top draft picks ever to face each other in their Major League debuts. Romero won the battle, giving up two runs on seven hits over six innings and picking up the victory. We mentioned R.A Dickey off the top. In 2001, his first season with Texas, he only wound up working four games in relief. He had an 0-1 record with a 6.75 ERA. He gave up three homers in just 12 innings, walked seven and struck out four. He wouldnt get called back up to the big club until 2003. So Sean Nolin can take heart, a first Major League appearance doesnt neccessarily make or break a career. The Blue Jays fully expect he will be back. Cy Young Battle Its still a long way to go to the finish line but three young pitchers are at least in the conversation already for the Cy Young Award; two in the National League and one in the American League. Lefty Matt Moore has certainly picked up the slack for the injured David Price in Tampa Bay. The 23-year-old, who was an 8th round pick in 2007, is 8-0 with a 2.21 earned run average. With a little more run support, Matt Harvey of the Mets would be even better than his 5-0 start with a 1.93 ERA. The 24-year-old righthander was the seventh overall pick in the 2010 draft. Then you have Patrick Corbin, a 23-year-old southpaw with the Arizona Diamondbacks. A second round pick by the Angels in 2009 has the best numbers of all at 8-0 with a 1.71 ERA. The Diamondbacks got him in what now looks like a steal of a trade. The Angels sent Corbin and three others to Arizona on July 25, 2010 for righthander Dan Haren. Haren gave the Halos a couple of decent years, but struggled with back troubles a year ago and ultimately signed with Washington as a free agent. Not only does Arizona have Corbin, another member of that deal, Tyler Skaggs has stepped into the rotation to fill in for Ian Kennedy, who cut his finger washing dishes of all things. Long Road Ahead The Blue Jays still have 112 games left to play, and they are only six and a half games back of Cleveland and the second Wild Card slot. Still, they will have to go 69 and 43 the rest of the way to wind up with 90 wins. Even if you believe 87 victories can get you a Wild Card position, the Jays will have to go 66-46 the rest of the way. Not impossible, but quicky becoming improbable. ' ' '
