Benfica vs. Lyon live stream: Watch Champions League online

Benfica face Lyon at Estadio da Luz on Wednesday, Oct. 23. Here’s all the info you need to watch.

In the third game of the Champions League, Benfica host Lyon in Lisbon. Benfica have got off to a terrible start to the tournament, losing both of their games. Lyon are tied for first in their group with four points.

Benfica are one of four teams to not pick up a point in the Champions League so far. The reigning Portuguese champions lost their opening game of the tournament to RB Leipzig before going to Russia and losing to Zenit St. Petersburg. If the Eagles are going to pick up their first victory of the group stage, the club will lean heavily on Pizzi. The Portuguese playmaker leads Benfica with 10 goals in all competitions this season.

While Lyon have got off to a strong start in the Champions League, they have been terrible in Ligue 1. Lyon are in the relegation zone after dropping points in eight straight games. Having not won a Ligue 1 game since Aug. 16, Lyon fired Sylvinho over the international break and replaced him with Rudi Garcia. In his first game in charge, Garcia’s team were held to a scoreless draw by Dijon. If Lyon are going to steal points from Benfica in Portugal, the club will need strong performances from Memphis Depay and Moussa Dembele. The duo have combined for 12 goals this season.
