Rui Borges plans drastic move for Sporting’s return to the league | OneFootball

Rui Borges admitted, in a press conference previewing the match against Alverca, that he will make changes to Sporting's starting eleven. However, the truth is that the Lions' coach will not just make a few changes, but will actually swap out all eleven players. Check the probable lineup HERE.

If we look at the starting team that played the League Cup match, also against the Ribatejan side, the coach of the green and whites will not keep any player. Now, it's time for the 'heavyweights' to return, who had the chance to catch their breath during the week.

That said, some of the players who started in the Allianz Cup match may be on the bench, but the fatigue management carried out by Rui Borges and his technical staff will try to give the players a rest by rotating them, as a result of Sporting's hectic schedule in recent days.

Benfica is in third place, with 21 points, while Porto leads the competition with 25 points.

Sporting returns to the pitch this Friday, October 31st, against Alverca. The match, counting for the tenth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, against the team led by Custódio, will be played at Estádio José Alvalade at 8:15 pm.
