Marítimo faces serious absentees in their squad before the clash against Benfica, with five injured players. The affected players are Tomás Tavares, Ogbeta, Yellu Santiago, Dominguez and Simo, all out of action due to physical problems.
This situation represents a significant challenge for Marítimo's technical staff, who will have to find alternatives to make up for the absence of these players in the match against Benfica, one of the strongest teams in the Portuguese league.
The accumulated injuries may compromise the team's performance in the match, forcing the coach to improvise tactical solutions and give opportunities to less used players during the season.
