What They're Saying

Benfica manager Jorge Jesus (via Sapo Desporto): "He [Ruben Amorim] is not even 50 percent. You need to play. As we are practically at the end of the season, he'll have to play for the championship. We'll have to risk it, even though he is not in the best condition."

"But this is the only way he'll improve," Jesus added. "Even not being well, we see that he as another level, another class."

Tactical Preview
