While the team’s attacking options are solid, Mourinho is faced with issues in organizing his defense. Key defender Nigerian Super Eagles player, Bright Osayi-Samuel is sidelined due to injury, and Djiku’s availability remains uncertain. Additionally, recent signing Kosti? is still working towards full fitness.

In response to these defensive setbacks, Mourinho is likely to opt for Mert Müldür to fill in for Osayi, a move he has utilized previously. Oosterwolde, who has been performing as left-back following Ferdi’s departure, is expected to retain his position as there are no viable alternatives. The spot alongside Ça?lar Söyüncü in central defense will be contested by either Samet Akaydin or Becão.
