Vagiannidis set for good news ahead of Sporting v Moreirense | OneFootball

Georgios Vagiannidis is expected to start in Sporting's next match. The right back, who has represented Greece internationally, is likely to be in Rui Borges' starting 11, a decision that implies the return of Ivan Fresneda to the substitutes' bench, in what should be one of two changes made by the Mirandela coach for the match against Moreirense.

The Greek player was a starter and played the full match against Famalicão, but lost his place in the Champions League, in the reception to Kairat Almaty. Fresneda played the 90 minutes against the Kazakhs, so that Sporting's 'number 13' can return to the starting eleven for the National Championship. Moreover, Zeno Debast is expected to replace Eduardo Quaresma, while Maxi Araújo should keep his place on the left wing of the lions.

In midfield, there should be no changes. Morten Hjulmand is 'untouchable' in Sporting's starting eleven, while Giorgi Kochorashvili should also continue to be his partner, as Hidemasa Morita still needs to accumulate more minutes before he can be a starter.

The green and white's attack line should also remain the same for Sporting's return to the National Championship. Geovany Quenda, Francisco Trincão, Pedro Gonçalves, and Luis Suárez will be Rui Borges' choices for another match - especially since Geny Catamo continues to be among the injured for the match.

Sporting will take to the field again next Monday, September 22, against Moreirense, in a match for the sixth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. The match against the team led by Vasco Botelho da Costa will be played at 8:15 pm, at the José Alvalade Stadium.
