Liga Portugal Betclic: AVS v Benfica, how to watch, line-ups, kick-off | OneFootball

Benfica returns to the field next Saturday, September 20th, against AVS. The match against the team led by Fábio Espinho, valid for the sixth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, will be played in Vila das Aves and is scheduled to kick off at 6:00 PM.

The Eagles come to this match after a defeat to Qarabag, which resulted in the dismissal of Bruno Lage. The Reds played with Anatoliy Trubin, Amar Dedic, António Silva, Nicolás Otamendi, Samuel Dahl, Enzo Barrenechea, Fredrik Aursnes, Andreas Schjelderup, Georgiy Sudakov, and Vangelis Pavlidis.

In the official presentation, José Mourinho assured that he could not make many changes to the lineup, given the short time to work. Therefore, the Special One is expected to repeat the formation from the previous match, in what marks his return to the Reds.

Trubin remains the guardian of the Reds' goal, with no changes in defense. Dedic and Dahl are the Eagles' full-backs, in a defense composed of António Silva and Otamendi. In the midfield, Enzo Barrenechea partners with Richard Ríos, as has been the case all season.

Further up, Andreas Schjelderup owns the left flank of the attack, with Fredrik Aursnes responsible for the right wing. Georgiy Sudakov made his debut as a starter with two assists and is expected to maintain his position, supporting the striker Vangelis Pavlidis.
