Porto will have just 16 outfield players available for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final with Liverpool.
The two sides will meet at Anfield on Tuesday but the Portuguese side will be missing a number of key players.
Centre-back Pepe is suspended after picking up a booking in their last-16 tie with Roma when he clashed with former Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko.
Porto captain Hector Herrera was also booked in that match and will miss the first leg as a result.
Left-back Alex Telles is also ‘fighting against the clock’ to be ready for the trip to Liverpool, according to the Portuguese press (via Sport Witness).
The Brazilian has a bursitis in his right hip that is causing him some issues.
