Casa Pia - Benfica | Likely XI at a ground of bad memories | OneFootball

Anatoliy Trubin, Alexander Bah, António Silva, Nicolás Otamendi, Richard Ríos, Enzo Barrenechea, Dodi Lukebakio, Rafa Silva, Andreas Schjelderup and Vangelis Pavlidis are expected to be the options fielded by José Mourinho in Benfica's match, as they visit Casa Pia's ground.

With the international break, the last of the season, now over, the Eagles are getting ready to return to competition, and immediately with a visit that, last time around, was quite bittersweet for Benfica. .

With no real surprise, Anatoliy Trubin remains between the posts for Benfica. Despite some inconsistent displays, the Ukrainian continues to be the best option. In defense, Tomás Araújo is a last-minute absentee, which puts António Silva in central defense alongside Nicolás Otamendi. On the flanks, Dahl is 'untouchable' and Bah takes advantage of Amar Dedic's suspension.

In midfield, the original pairing of Richard Ríos and Enzo Barrenechea should return to the starting eleven, largely because of the absence of the injured Fredrik Aursnes and the decision to rest Leandro Barreiro, who has been dealing with some complaints. Out wide, Schjelderup, like the Swedish full-back, keeps his place, while on the opposite side Lukebakio should be in pole position ahead of Gianluca Prestianni. Supporting the attack, Rafa Silva should start again, ahead of Georgiy Sudakov.

Vangelis Pavlidis, despite failing to score for his national team, should keep his place in the starting lineup and will look to sharpen his aim against the Geese. It should be noted that the match is scheduled for this Monday, April 6, at 8:45 pm, in Rio Maior. The game between Casa Pia and Benfica will be broadcast on Sport TV and will be officiated by Hélder Carvalho.
