Portugal coach Carlos Queiroz could be without the services of influential midfielder Deco when his men take on Bosnia-Herzegovina on Wednesday.
The Chelsea midfielder picked up a leg injury in Portugal's 1-0 home win against the Bosnians last weekend and was forced to leave the pitch after 84 minutes of play due to the knock.
Deco has a muscle strain in his right leg and could therefore be forced to watch Wednesday's game from the stands. Head coach Carlos Queiroz confirmed the injury during a press conference, but refused to comment whether Deco would be match fit in time.
Meanwhile, centre-back Bruno Alves is also nursing a knock he picked up in Saturday's game. The Porto star, who scored the only goal of the match last weekend, is battling to recover from a twisted ankle, but is expected to make it in time.
