Paços de Ferreira head to Estádio Nacional on Friday for their Primeira Liga fixture with Belenenses. Time to bring you the latest player updates and predicted line ups.
Belenenses will be hoping to bounce back here following a 2-0 Primeira Liga defeat last time out to Gil Vicente. We think that Azuis will probably go for a 3-5-2 formation for this one with Luiz Felipe, Sphephelo Sithole, Yohan Tavares, Chima Akas Uche, Diogo Calila, Andrija Lukovic, Jordan Van der Gaag, Cesar Sousa, Yves Baraye, Alisson Safira and Abel Camará.
Nilton, Thibang Phete and Chico Teixeira won’t be able to feature for Belenenses gaffer Franclim Carvalho. Carraça is ineligible for this match because of suspension.
How Belenenses might line up vs Paços de Ferreira
Paços de Ferreira head into the game following on from a 2-1 Primeira Liga win with the downing of Vizela in their most recent game. There’s a good chance that Os Castores could decide to play in a 4-3-3 system, giving starts to André Ferreira, Fernando Fonseca, Maracás, Marco Baixinho, Vitorino Antunes, Nuno Santos, Luiz Carlos, Matchoi Djaló, Hélder Ferreira, Denilson and Lucas Silva.
Paços boss César Peixoto has to choose a team with limited availability. André Ferreira (Corona virus), Luís Bastos (Corona virus), João Vigário (Unknown Injury) and N'Dri Philippe Koffi (Ankle Fracture) will not be playing here. The players ineligible for this match because of suspension are Rui Pires and Juan Delgado.
