Bednarek and Martim Fernandes picked up knocks but are fit for Guimarães | OneFootball

Good news for FC Porto following their victory in the classic: Jan Bednarek, as well as Martim Fernandes, who "kept the medical team busy," will be available for the match on Sunday in Guimarães.

The central defender, who scored the goal for FC Porto against Benfica, was substituted due to complaints in the back of his right thigh. On the bench, as is usual in these situations, the area was immobilized and iced, but the reassessment confirmed that Bednarek did not suffer a muscular injury.

As for Martim, he suffered a nose fracture just 6 minutes in and stayed on the field until shortly after the 70th minute, playing through pain and particularly bothered by a difficult-to-control bleeding, especially in the first half. Even so, the under-21 international full-back is among the options for the visit to V. Guimarães, at the start of the second round of the championship. His situation will be reassessed to decide if he can use facial protection.
