Silva a doubt for Benfica v Vitória de Guimarães | OneFootball

Vitória de Guimarães are preparing for the league’s return with good news regarding Gustavo Silva, but the winger’s presence in the clash against Benfica is still not fully guaranteed. The player was injured in the first half of the match against Moreirense, before the international break, but the period without competition allowed him to recover from the physical problem.

Gustavo Silva has been a regular pick for Tiago Margarido this season and has made seven appearances, scoring one goal. The strike came against Nacional and proved decisive in the Conquerors’ win at the Estádio D. Afonso Henriques.

Meanwhile, on Benfica’s side, Jakub Kaminski is already at Seixal, where he has begun the recovery process from the muscle injury suffered while on international duty. The Benfica winger was released from national team duty and is now being monitored by the Eagles’ medical department in a race against time to return to action.

The 24-year-old player was injured in the 25th minute of the goalless draw between Poland and Bosnia and Herzegovina after feeling discomfort in his adductor muscle. He was eventually substituted, in a decision made to avoid worsening the physical problem.

Kaminski’s availability for the home match against Vitória de Guimarães, scheduled for 11 October, is therefore in doubt. The use of Benfica’s new signing will depend on the clinical progress made over the coming days, and Benfica will have to wait to see whether the player can recover in time.
