There are a couple of injury problems that make life difficult for manager Vítor Campelos. Paulo Vítor, Nwankwo Obiora, Sidy Sarr, and Jonathan Arriba are unavailable.

Vitor Campelos´ News:

As a large proportion of the squad is in good condition, the Chaves manager Vítor Campelos only has one health concern for this match – the absence of Jonny Arriba. This is a source of gratitude for the manager, as having a healthy team is crucial for success. However, the absence of Arriba is causing some worry, as he is a key player who brings a lot to the team both on and off the pitch. Nonetheless, Campelos is confident that the rest of the squad will step up and fill the void left by Arriba’s absence.
