How to Watch Rangers vs. Benfica: Stream Europa League Live, TV Channel
Philippe Clement’s Rangers team came close to completing the shock of the Europa League after almost beating Benfica last week, with the two teams set to reconvene for a second leg on Thursday. The round-of-16 opponents ended up settling for a 2-2 draw as Rangers twice lost the lead in Lisbon, knowing a home win at Ibrox would guarantee them passage into the competition’s quarterfinals. The Gers finished as runners-up in this tournament as recently as 2022, but Clement is eager to write his own success story in Glasgow as his side goes in search of a giant slaying. And a victory on Thursday would represent a huge victory over the odds against a Benfica team that started this season in the Champions League before dropping down.

The Scottish Premiership leader came agonizingly close to slaying the Eagles in their own backyard after goals from Tom Lawrence and Dijon Sterling twice put them ahead.
Former Real Madrid and PSG star Angel Di Maria was the first to equalize before a Conor Goldson own-goal pulled Benfica level a second time.
One who may be particularly keen to make an impact at Ibrox is loan forward Fabio Silva, who spent two years in Benfica’s academy before graduating from the youth ranks at Porto:
The Portuguese youngster is with Rangers on temporary terms and has scored four times in 13 outings for the Glaswegians to date.
That being said, an intervention against his former club would be his biggest achievement in Rangers blue to date having played the entire 90 minutes in Lisbon last time out.
Rangers advanced to the Scottish Cup semi-finals after beating Hibernian 2-0 on Sunday, while Benfica also returned to winning ways with a 3-1 home win over Estoril.
