This Sunday, at 8:30 pm (mainland Portugal time), Benfica will host Moreirense in a match counting for the 29th round of the I League, which precedes the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals, against Marseille, on Thursday.

Roger Schmidt has not changed the starting eleven for three consecutive games, but he will have to do so against the "cónegos", since Nicolás Otamendi and Fredrik Aursnes will be serving a suspension. According to the newspaper A Bola, Morato and Tomás Araújo are the strongest candidates to take on these positions.

However, the changes should not stop there, since, given the distance to the leader, Sporting (which is currently seven points), the German coach may well choose to give priority to the continental clash.

This means that some of the most used players in the incarnated squad, such as Rafa Silva, António Silva, João Neves or Ángel di María, could be spared, creating opportunities for João Mário, Orkun Kokçu, Arthur Cabral and company.
