No sidelined players
Sporting CP host LASK at the Estadio Jose Alvalade in Lisbon in the Champions League, with Rui Borges' side looking to extend their strong run in European competition.
The Lions arrive in good form. Their most recent Champions League outing ended in a 2-0 win over Lens, and three wins from their last five matches across all competitions underline the consistency that has carried them to sixth place in the standings.
Luis Suarez leads the attacking line in a projected XI that also features Maximiliano Araujo and Geny Catamo in wide positions, with Goncalo Inacio anchoring a back line that will be tested by a direct Austrian side. Zeno Debast and Rodrigo Zalazar are absent through injury, meaning Borges has limited options in defence and midfield.
LASK arrive at the Alvalade in a difficult moment. They were beaten 6-3 by Liverpool in their previous Champions League fixture and sit 33rd in the competition standings, making this a must-improve outing for Dietmar Kuehbauer's squad.
A 4-0 win over Austria Lustenau in the Austrian Bundesliga last weekend offered some encouragement, but the gap in class between the two sides in this competition is reflected clearly in the table.
