Sporting
- Bah, Neres and Kokçu remain injured and won't be part of Sunday's derby.
- Petar Musa should lead the line, getting the nod over Cabral and Tengstedt.
- Other than that, Roger Schmidt should name the same Starting XI that faced Real Sociedad last time around.
- Gyokeres had a full week to rest as he served a match ban against Rakow and will likely boost Sporting CP' options upfront.
- Pote netted a decisive brace in midweek and should be full of confidence heading into Sunday' derby.
- Geny Catamo and Morita are injured and won't be available here, giving Esgaio and Bragança another chance to start.
yep, many goals is the way to go.
