How AVS arrives
AVS reaches the game in a serious crisis. This Friday, on the eve of the game, the Council fired the coach José Mota and nobody knows with certainty who will lead the team. This is even declared in the official dismissal declaration:
“Avs Sad Sad informs that José Mota has stopped playing the role of the main coach of our professional team.

How Benfica de Mourinho arrives

Mourinho told the conference of this Friday, that he has just arrived and has no way to radicalize training, promoting many changes in the initial formation left by Bruno Lage.

However, it is very likely that the recently hired Southkov Enter as an appetizer. The Ukrainian played a few minutes under Lage’s command, but was pleasant in training. If you choose a more offensive team, Mourinho should take Mauro Enzo. If you prefer a more cautious team, one of the men should come out, probably Prestianni.
