Rui Silva, Georgios Vagiannidis, Zeno Debast, Gonçalo Inácio, and Ricardo Mangas; Geny Catamo, Morten Hjulmand, Giorgi Kochorashvili; Francisco Trincão, Pedro Gonçalves, and Luis Suárez. This is expected to be the starting eleven for Rui Borges' Sporting in the next round of the Liga Portugal Betclic.
Rui Silva remains in the green and white goal. Zeno Debast and Ricardo Mangas continue to occupy the places of Diomande and Maxi Araújo, who are injured. Vagiannidis is expected to make his starting debut for Sporting and take the place of Iván Fresneda.
Hidemasa Morita is in doubt and is likely to be replaced by newcomer Giorgi Kochorashvili, who will pair with Morten Hjulmand. Geny Catamo should occupy the right flank, with Pedro Gonçalves in the left midfield. Francisco Trincão will have the freedom to roam the interior, behind the striker.
Conrad Harder is getting closer to leaving the Alvalade Club and will again be on the bench. Luis Suárez is the undisputed holder of the position and is expected to be the furthest forward of the lions in the Classic against the blue and white rival.
The green and white emblem will return to the field next Saturday, August 30, against Porto. The match, for the fourth round of the National Championship, against the team led by Francesco Farioli, will be played at 8:30 pm, in Alvalade.
