Speak, Roger Schmidt! - Benfica coach
"Of course we were all extremely disappointed after Thursday's game [Marseille]. The aim was to advance to the semi-final, we wanted to do something special in the Europa League, but football is what it is. We have to accept that we lost on penalties and the players, and all of us, needed one/two days to deal with the situation, and our task is to look at what's next. Playing tomorrow (April 22) is good for us". "We have the opportunity to show our attitude on the field and, for me, the most important thing is to accept Thursday's result, focus, play good football and finish the season at a top level. That's our objective and I feel that the players are focused again and we will play a good game against Farense".
Speak, Jose Mota! - Farense coach
"These are games with completely different characteristics. We know the way Benfica will act and we know that these 'big' teams don't like and don't lose two games in a row. Therefore, I expect a Benfica in their image, very strong trying to resolve the game the as quickly as possible – which is the prerogative of 'big' teams, and they will want to impose their pace of play". "We also realized that, in psychological terms, this team wants to give an image and have a different result from what they had in the Europa League. It will be a spectacular atmosphere. What my players and I want is to play a good game, to demonstrate what we are and are worth, and try to achieve a good result".
How does Benfica arrive?
Coach Roger Schmidt still doesn't know if he will be able to count on Juan Bernat. The player feels muscle pain and is in doubt. Tomás Araújo is certain to be absent and will be out of the match because of an ankle injury. Felipe Morato, Álvaro Carreras and Arthur Cabral must be listed.
How does Farense arrive?
Coach José Mota will have two important absences in the match. The Lions of Faro will not be able to count on the presence of Bruno Duarte. The player will be suspended due to the number of yellow cards in recent games. In addition to him, Mattheus Oliveira will also accompany him, but due to a hamstring injury.
