Where to watch Boca Juniors vs. Benfica live stream, TV channel, start time for FIFA Club World Cup match

Two of the most storied clubs in their respective continents clash as Boca Juniors face Benfica in a high-stakes FIFA Club World Cup 2025 group stage match at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium.

Boca, fresh off a grueling Libertadores campaign where they reached the final through a trio of penalty shootout wins, will rely on veterans like Edinson Cavani and Ander Herrera to guide a somewhat depleted squad. Defender Ayrton Costa and new signing Marco Pellegrino are ruled out. With the South American giants hoping to recapture their historic global dominance, this fixture is a key test in a stacked group also featuring Bayern Munich.

Benfica, meanwhile, come into the match after a disappointing end to their domestic season, losing both the Primeira Liga title and the Taça de Portugal to rivals Sporting CP. But the Portuguese side still boasts a stable and seasoned lineup headlined by Ángel Di María, striker Vangelis Pavlidis, and midfield engine Orkun Kökçü. With full-back Álvaro Carreras likely to feature despite interest from Real Madrid, manager Roger Schmidt’s team is expected to be sharp and aggressive.
