Defensive Doubts and Pavlidis Comeback: Benfica’s Predicted Lineup Against Moreirense
As Benfica prepares for their upcoming match against Moreirense, several tactical decisions are under scrutiny. The game is set to kick off on Sunday at 18:00.
Defensive Doubts for Benfica
A key uncertainty for Benfica is the lineup in defense. Pavlidis, previously on the bench during the match against Napoli, is expected to return to the starting eleven. However, it remains unclear if he will be joined by António Silva or if the coach will continue to favor Tomás Araújo in the lineup.
Young Talents in the Squad
Benfica’s squad also includes promising young players. Rodrigo Rêgo, José Neto, and Tiago Freitas traveled with the team, arriving in Gaia around 19:15 yesterday.
Predicted Lineup for Benfica
The probable starting lineup for the match against Moreirense is as follows:
- Goalkeeper: Trubin
- Defenders: Dedic, António Silva, Otamendi, Dahl
- Midfielders: Richard Ríos, Barrenechea
- Forwards: Aursnes, Leandro Barreiro, Sudakov, Pavlidis
As Benfica approaches this critical match, their defensive strategies and player selections will be pivotal in ensuring success against Moreirense.
