Good news for Rui Borges: Hidemasa Morita and Ousmane Diomande might get some minutes in Sporting - Kairat, valid for the first round of the Champions League. Sidelined due to injury, the two players won't be starters, but they could be options from the bench, with their playing time previously defined.
According to information revealed by the newspaper A Bola, even though the center back and the midfielder didn't join the green and white squad in last Tuesday's training, September 16, they are in the final stage of recovering from their respective injuries. Given this, it is likely that they will already be part of today's activities.
Geovany Quenda is likely to be a starter again.
The 'number 10' joins Daniel Bragança, Nuno Santos, and Rui Silva as available for the match, since the goalkeeper of the Alvalade Club also should not get any minutes, seeing his place taken by João Virgínia, as it already happened against Famalicão.
The Sporting match against the team led by Rafael Urazbakhtin, valid for the first round of the Champions League, will be played at José Alvalade Stadium and is scheduled to kick off at 8:00 PM.
