Team News: Ruben Neves becomes youngest captain in Champions League history

Ruben Neves becomes youngest UCL captain

Ruben Neves will become the youngest captain in Champions League history when the 18-year-old leads out Porto in their Group G game at home to Maccabi Tel Aviv this evening.

The hosts have made just one change from the side that won 4-0 at home to Belenenses last time out, with Bruno Martins Indi replacing Maicon in defence.

Andre Andre will be hoping to reproduce the form which saw him score in the 2-1 win against Chelsea in the last round of European fixtures as he lines up alongside Neves and Giannelli Imbula in midfield.

Eran Zahavi starts up front for the visitors, who are still without a goal in Group G.

Porto: Casillas; Pereira, Marcano, Martins Indi, Layun; Neves, Andre, Imbula; Brahimi, Aboubakar, Corona Subs: Helton, Danilo, Herrera, Evandro, Tello, Bueno, Osvaldo

Maccabi Tel Aviv: Rajkovic; Tibi, Ben Harush, Ben Haim, Carlos Garcia; Alberman, Zahavi, Miha, Mitrovic; Peretz, Ben Haim Subs: Lifshitz, Ziv, Azulay, Rikan, Vermouth, Ben Basat, Itzhaki
