Events

- 30' Marcus Edwards needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.
- 35' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ricardo Esgaio suffering a number of foals already.
- 40' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
