According to a statement posted on the official site of FC Porto, Helton returned to being integrated to conditioning training, while Mariano Gonzalez, Ruben Micael and Varela are still delivered to the medical department.

FC Porto ends on Saturday to prepare the reception to Benfica, in a match to be made by 20:15(GMT) on Sunday, with a training session scheduled for 10:00am, behind closed doors at the "Estadio do Dragao".

The meeting between the four-times national champions, currently ranked third, and the leader Benfica, which is a point of being crowned champion, will have the arbitration of Olegario Benquerença.

In case of victory or tie, the "embodieds" win their No 32. title, but can also reach the scepter in case of Sporting Braga's defeat(second), which plays at the same time with Paços de Ferreira.
