RB Leipzig face Benfica at Red Bull Arena on Wednesday, Nov. 27. Here’s all the info you need to watch.

In the fifth game of the Champions League group stage, RB Leipzig host Benfica at Red Bull Arena. Leipzig can advance to the Champions League knockout stage for the first time in club history if they can pick up a point on Wednesday. Benfica are fourth in the group with three points but could also advance to the knockout stage if they win both of their remaining games.

Leipzig are rounding into form under first-year manager Julian Nagelsmann winning five straight games between the Bundesliga and the Champions League. Leipzig are one point back of Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga title race. In the previous game against Benfica, Leipzig went to Portugal and won 2-1, with Timo Werner scoring both goals. Werner is having an incredible season for the RB Leipzig, leading the club with 16 goals in all competitions and will be the key to their attack on Wednesday.

Benfica are first in the Portuguese league, winning 10 of 11 games. Despite their strong start to the season domestically, the Eagles have failed to carry over their success into the Champions League. Benfica lost their first three games of the first four games of the group stage. The lone win for the Eagles came against Lyon. If the Portuguese side are going to pick up their second win in the group stage, they will need a strong performance from Pizzi. The Portuguese playmaker leads Benfica with 13 goals and six assists this season.
