"Amad is not here, head coach Amorim told reporters on Friday. Someone in his family passed away, so we are giving all the support to Amad. We understood that it was important for him to have his time and to return home. He added: We can win without Amad and we want to win also for Amad. Amad's place in attack falls to summer signing Matheus Cunha, fit again after returning from a hamstring injury off the bench last time out."
"Licha (Martinez) is out, Casemiro is out because of the red card, Amorim said. "(Mazraoui) is not going to be (available) until we stop for the national team, so he's out also. The rest are fit and ready to play.""
Casemiro is suspended after two yellow cards and will miss the match. Manuel Ugarte is selected ahead of Kobbie Mainoo in midfield. Amad Diallo is absent due to a family bereavement, with Matheus Cunha filling his attacking role after recovering from a hamstring problem. Noussair Mazraoui is unavailable until after the October international break because of a knock. Lisandro Martinez continues rehabilitation and is not yet ready. Diogo Dalot returned to training and reclaims his wing-back spot, with Patrick Dorgu on the opposite flank. The chosen XI features Bayindir; De Ligt, Maguire, Shaw; Dalot, Ugarte, Fernandes, Dorgu; Mbeumo, Cunha; Sesko.
