After a day off, the Sporting squad returns to work this Wednesday, beginning preparations for Friday's meeting in Barcelos, against Gil Vicente. The lion's unavailable list continues to be filled with injured players Debast, Nuno Santos, Daniel Bragança, Quenda and Pedro Gonçalves, as well as Diomande and Geny Catamo, serving, respectively, Ivory Coast and Mozambique in CAN. There was still some hope of Debast recovered for the match in Minho from the muscle injury to his left thigh suffered on October 22nd against Marseille but, according to data obtained by A BOLA, this is not likely to happen, although the Belgian is already in the final phase of rehabilitation, just like Daniel Bragança. From this perspective, given the absences but also due to the way he has responded in recent games, Eduardo Quaresma will maintain his place in the eleven as a central midfielder on the right side, alongside Gonçalo Inácio.
