Rui Patrício, Miguel Veloso, João Moutinho, Liedson play this Saturday for Portugal, Vukcevic is the selection of Montenegro, Matias Fernandez is at the service of Chile, Adrien and Daniel Carriço play this Friday with the national team under-21 against Lithuania.

Polga, Caicedo, Caneira, Postiga, Pereirinha, Izmailov will be limited by physical problems.
