SL Benfica will welcome Rangers to the Estádio da Luz when the two come up against each other in the Europa League this week. The fixture will be played on Thursday, November 5 at 11:25 pm IST. Here's a look at our BEN vs RNG Dream11 prediction, BEN vs RNG Dream11 team and the probable BEN vs RNG playing 11. 

BEN vs RNG live: BEN vs RNG Dream11 prediction and preview

When there are two strong sides facing off, one can always expect a tight clash. Both teams have been in top form and have won their opening two fixtures. Benfica were on a seven-game winning run that came to an end in a shock 3-0 loss away to Boavista. Steven Gerrard's side, meanwhile, have kept six clean sheets in a row and are yet to lose this season. Their last defeat goes 22 games back into last season. 

In terms of history against clubs from the other nations, Benfica have hosted Scottish opponents on five previous occasions, winning each game; the last four matches have come against Rangers’ biggest rivals, Celtic. On the other hand, Rangers are currently unbeaten in 11 matches against Portuguese sides; the last three came in the same competition last season. Based on recent form, our BEN vs RNG match prediction is a closely fought draw.
