Hopeful to face United
Fofana (knee) is eyeing a return against Manchester United on Thursday, according to manager Paulo Fonseca. "Malick, on the other hand, will not be available. I think he will be back for the next game against Manchester United. Malick is not yet training with the group. He should resume with us next week.
