Fredrik Aursnes is increasingly closer to his best physical form and could be one of the new features in Marco Silva's eleven for the game against Gil Vicente, scheduled for this Sunday. The Norwegian international midfielder had not set foot on the pitch since August 20, when he played just six minutes in the home victory over Aarhus, from Denmark, by 3-1.
Aursnes's return to competition, against Moreirense, brought a new dilemma for Marco Silva. During the Nordic player's absence, Leandro Barreiro took advantage of the opportunity and performed at a high level, now putting the composition of the red-and-white midfield up for discussion.
Aursnes is expected to have a guaranteed place in the starting eleven, which could happen as early as the next game. This season, the Norwegian has only played two matches and was on the bench in the match against Marítimo.
Marco Silva is expected to make few changes to the red-and-white eleven for the match against Gil Vicente, with one of the possible changes occurring precisely in midfield, with Aursnes coming into the starting eleven.
