The League understands that the change in the match date was a rescheduling, not a postponement. That is, the League agreed to reschedule this match from September 6th to September 23rd, so both players, as they were previously registered, are eligible.

Mourinho, who returned to Benfica 25 years ago, debuted with a 3-0 victory at Vila das Aves. Sudakov scored one of the goals.
