Benfica v Rangers TV channel, live stream details and kick-off time for table-topping clash

Rangers and Benfica will put their 100 per cent Europa League records to the test when they go toe-to-toe in the Estadio da Luz.

Both teams sit on six points in Group D having won both of their opening two fixtures. Steven Gerrard's men overcame Standard Liege 2-0 in Belgium on matchday one before edging past Lech Poznan at Ibrox last week.

The Lisbon giants defeated Lech 4-2 in their opening fixture in Portugal, and enjoyed a 3-0 win over Standard last Thursday.

Rangers have been mighty impressive in European competition under Gerrard, but Benfica away is likely to prove one of their toughest tests under his stewardship.

Jorge Jesus' side are aiming to make it 24 home matches unbeaten in the Europa League – setting a new record in the process – when the Scottish Premiership leaders arrive on Thursday evening.

So how do I watch the game?

The match kicks off at 5.55pm on Thursday, 5 November in the Estadio da Luz. All the action will be shown live on BT Sport 3 with the programme getting underway 25-minutes before kick-off. Subscribers can also stream all the action using the BT Sport app.
