Premiership giants Everton welcome Portuguese giants Benfica, to Goodison Park Thursday evening in the first of two LIVE Europa League matches to be telecast on Joy Sports on Multi- TV.
Villarreal then take on Lazio at the El Madrigal in a reverse of the November 5th fixture (also shown on Joy Sports on Multi-TV).
Everton have struggled in the Barclays premiership this season but have done well in Europe’s elite competition. They lie joint top of Group 1 with Benfica albeit with a vastly inferior goal difference to their Portuguese rivals.
Benfica thrashed the English side 5-0 a fortnight ago and David Moye’s men will be out to exact some measure of revenge at home. The match kicks of at 6:05pm on Multi-TV’s channel 008.
Villarreal’s 5-0 drubbing of fellow La Liga struggler’s Tenerife, certainly eased the pressure on under-fire coach Ernesto Valverde and lessened the misery the Spanish outfit has endured following their wretched run of form in both domestic and European competitions.
Valverde will hope his team’s revival continues when they host Lazio tomorrow. Villarreal suffered a 2-1 reversal at the hands of Lazio and must win this tie to have any chance of progressing to the third round of the Europa league. The match kicks off LIVE at 8:05pm on Joy Sports only on Multi- TV.
Fantastic ‘4’ action continues this weekend on Multi-TV with four top-liners from France’s Ligue 1, Spain’s La Liga, Italy’s Serie A and Germany’s Bundesliga.
