Team News: No start for Javier Saviola against his old club

No start for Saviola

Javier Saviola does not feature in the starting lineup for Olympiacos against his former side Benfica in their Champions League clash this evening.

The Argentine misses out as Kostas Mitroglou leads the line for the Greek side, while he will be supported from the wide areas by Vladimir Weiss and Andreas Samaris.

Benfica start Oscar Cardozo up front and he will start alongside Lima in a likely 4-4-2 formation supported by Ola John and Perez on the flanks.

Their defence will be anchored by Lusiao and Ezequiel Garay, who will be guarded by Nemanja Matic and Nicolas Maitain in front of them.

Benfica: Artur, A. Almeida, Luisao, Garay, Siqueira, Gaitan, Matic, Enzo Perez, Ola John, Lima, Cardozo

Olympiacos: Roberto, Saline, Manolas, Siovas, Holebas, Maniatis, Samaris, Weiss, Dominguez, Fuster, Mitroglou
