Benfica Hopes for Di Maria's Return Against Barcelona
The Portuguese team Benfica hopes to benefit from the services of their Argentine star Angel Di Maria in their anticipated match against Barcelona in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 on Wednesday.
According to the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo," Di Maria, who had a left thigh injury, is not certain to be available for the much-anticipated match against Barca.
The same applies to player Florentino Luis, who is considered an important element in the lineup of Bruno Lage, the head coach of the Eagles from the Portuguese capital.
It is worth noting that Benfica will definitely be without Alexander Bah and Mano Silva due to injuries to their anterior cruciate ligaments, and they will not return until next season.
