Vitoria de Guimaraes
Braga
- Handel saw the 5th yellow card of the season last time out and might be replaced by Nuno Santos here.
- Afonso Freitas and Bruno Gaspar will be in competition to start at the defensive wings here.
- Either Kaio César or Nélson Oliveira will lead the line on Saturday' derby.
- Paulo Oliveira is set to miss out due to an accumulation of bookings, meaning that Niakaté will have a new partner at the heart of the defense. José Fonte and Serdar will be in competition to fill that gap.
- Djaló will also miss out here as he was sent off last time around.
- Abel Ruiz came from the bench to score a brace and will push for a start upfront, especially if Rui Duarte opts for a 4-4-2 formation.
