Benfica v Barcelona live stream Reddit: Watch Champions League

On Wednesday night, Barcelona and Benfica will face off in a Group E showdown that Champions League fans can’t wait for. 

The pressure is officially on for FC Barcelona. Now that Lionel Messi is gone and suiting up for Paris Saint-Germain, fans still expect the club to be competitive in the Champions League. That wasn’t the case in their first match, as they suffered a 3-0 loss to Bayern Munich.

On Wednesday, the Catalonian giants will have the chance to bounce back, as they’ll take on Benfica. Will Barcelona rise to the occasion or suffer yet another disappointing loss?

The Champions League really couldn’t have started much worse for Barcelona. They had a chance to let folks know that just because Messi is gone, that doesn’t mean they can’t make noise in the tournament. The 3-0 loss to Bayern Munich told us otherwise. They need to win against Benfica in this one.
