What channel is Benfica v Celtic on? TV, live stream details for Europa League clash in Lisbon

Full details ahead of Europa League clash between Benfica and Celtic in Lisbon.

Celtic will aim to become the first Scottish team in almost two decades to beat Benfica as they clash with the Portuguese giants at Estadio da Luz in the Europa League on Thursday night.

Martin O’Neill’s men responded to three consecutive defeats before the international break with a well-deserved 2-0 win away to Motherwell on Sunday in the Scottish Premiership, and they’ll look to grab their first Europa League points of the season in Portugal after they started their campaign with a disappointing 3-1 home defeat to Ferencvaros in their opening game last month.

It’ll be no easy task though, with Benfica entering the match in formidable form, having won nine of their last 10 matches in all competitions. Marco Silva’s side opened their own Europa League campaign with an impressive 2-0 win away to AC Milan, and they’ll be looking to flex their muscles further when Celtic come to town.
