FC Vizela are dealing with an outbreak of COVID-19 with several players missing. Alvaro Pacheco will have no choice but to field an experimental XI against Sporting CP. Ofori and Kiki Afonso should both keep their spot at centre-back here. Cassiano will have to play out of position again in a wide position. Pedro Porro suffered a last minute injury against Leca FC and is expected to miss out again here. Ricardo Esgaio will replace him here. Bruno Tabata was a standout performer last time out and will contend with Pedro Gonçalves and Sarabia for a starting spot out wide. Adan, Coates and Palhinha were rested in midweek but will return here.
