Zé Vítor's expulsion against Famalicão, due to accumulating yellow cards, has left Tiago Margarido with a problem in the center of Nacional's defense for the trip to Amadora. The usual Léo Santos could be joined by the young Francisco Gonçalves – who played and scored against Rebordelo in the Cup, but only played 11 minutes in the League against Sp. Braga – or some adapted player, such as Matheus Dias or José Gomes. It should be noted that central defenders Ulisses and Ivanildo Fernandes are also unavailable due to injury.
However, Laabidi and Pablo Ruan will undergo medical examinations to assess the severity of their injuries, which prevented them from contributing to the team in Saturday's game. In addition to these two players, Lucas França, Ulisses, Ivanildo Fernandes, and Miguel Baeza remain sidelined due to injuries.
Nacional returns to training this Monday morning after enjoying a day off. Tiago Margarido will lead a closed-door training session at the Estádio da Madeira at 10:30 am.
