Moreirense is poised to test its unbeaten home record against FC Porto on Monday, with young winger Diogo Travassos expected to play a crucial left-sided role due to the ongoing absence of key forward Kiko Bondoso.
Bondoso remains sidelined with the medical department. He will not be available for head coach Vasco Botelho da Costa’s lineup. This marks his second consecutive absence, having also missed the Portuguese Cup match away to Fafe.
Travassos, an Under-21 international, will likely continue in the starting eleven. He has primarily featured as a right-sided winger this season. However, he was deployed on the left wing during the recent Cup fixture.
This tactical shift is anticipated for the demanding encounter with FC Porto. The game will challenge Moreirense’s perfect winning streak in home matches.
The match is scheduled for Monday at 8:15 PM local time. It will take place in Moreira de Cónegos.
