- Goalkeeper Gatito Fernández could miss this game with an injury sustained against Nacional on Thursday.
- He needed stitches to a nasty cut, so there's a good chance he'll need replacing.
- Veteran stopper Jefferson would be the most likely replacement.
- Roger Machado must decide whether to rotate after the midweek trip to Bolivia.
- His options are increased by the return from injury of right-back Marcos Rocha.
- Centre midfielder Adílson could also feature this weekend.
