Silva doubtful for Benfica as Vitória de Guimarães assess availability, Kaminski a fitness worry | OneFootball

Vitória de Guimarães have encouraging news on Gustavo Silva before the league restart at Benfica, but his involvement is not yet assured. Benfica’s Jakub Kaminski is also a doubt for the 11 October fixture.

According to Glorioso 1904, Silva was injured in the first half against Moreirense before the international break, and the pause has aided his recovery.

The winger has been a regular under Tiago Margarido this season, playing seven games and scoring one goal. That strike came against Nacional and proved decisive at Estádio D. Afonso Henriques.

Kaminski has returned to Seixal and begun rehabilitation for a muscle injury sustained on international duty. He left Poland’s camp and is being treated by Benfica’s medical staff in a race to be ready.

The 24-year-old suffered adductor discomfort and was substituted after 25 minutes of the goalless draw with Bosnia and Herzegovina to prevent further damage. His availability for Benfica’s meeting with Vitória de Guimarães remains uncertain and will depend on his progress in the coming days.
