Team News: Estoril
There aren’t many selection issues, with just the sole fitness concern for the Estoril gaffer Ian Cathro to contend with thanks to an otherwise robust group of players. Xeka (unknown injury) won’t play.
It’s our opinion that Canarinhos could kick off with a 3-4-3 formation for this game, handing starts to Joel Robles, Kevin Boma, Pedro Álvaro, Felix Bacher, Wagner Pina, Vinicius Zanocelo, Jordan Holsgrove, Pedro Amaral, Yanis Begraoui, Rafik Guitane and João Carvalho.
📋
