Porto journey to Estádio do CD Aves on Tuesday for their Primeira Liga tie with Desportivo Aves. Let’s check on the predicted line ups and player availability.
Desportivo Aves will be hoping for a better result following the 2-0 Primeira Liga defeat in their last game at the hands of Tondela. We are thinking that Aves will probably line up in a 4-2-3-1 system this time, beginning the first half with Fabio Szymonek, Afonso, Oumar Diakhite, Jonathan Buatu Mananga, Mato Milos, Aaron Tshibola, Claudio Falcão, José Carlos Moreira Varela, Rúben Oliveira, Rúben Macedo and Mehrdad Mohammadi.
Availability isn’t a big problem, with just the lone fitness concern for the Desportivo Aves boss Nuno Manta Santos to be concerned about thanks to an otherwise robust group. Andrej Simunec (Ankle problems) is sidelined. Ricardo Mangas cannot play in this game through suspension.
How Desportivo Aves might line up against Porto
Porto will go into the encounter after a 1-0 Primeira Liga win with the downing of Marítimo in their most recent fixture. We believe Dragões will likely begin the game with a 4-3-3 formation, giving starts to Agustín Marchesín, Jesus Manuel Corona, Pepe, Chancel Mbemba Mangulu, Luís Mata, Sérgio Oliveira, Danilo Pereira, Otávio, Moussa Marega, Ze Luis and Luis Díaz.
Owing to an otherwise available group, there’s only the one fitness worry for the Porto gaffer Sérgio Conceição to contend with. Iván Marcano (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) misses out for this game. Paulinho will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.
