Zaidu off with injury concern, but should be fit for Sporting | OneFootball

Zaidu remains Francesco Farioli’s first choice and, yesterday, he ended up being substituted early in the second half due to physical problems. At first glance, nothing suggests anything serious, but the left-back will be reassessed today when FC Porto return to training.

That session will be for recovery for the players most used yesterday and, for the others, it will mark the first training session in preparation for the match the day after tomorrow against Sporting, for the Portuguese Cup. Zaidu should therefore not be put under much strain on the pitch and could still be an option for the clássico. “From what I understood, it was just a cramp. It was a matter of accumulated fatigue, nothing more than that,” said Farioli.
