Portugal coach Paulo Bento on Friday recalled fit-again Real Madrid defenders Pepe and Fabio Coentrao for their November 11 Euro 2012 qualifying play-off first leg with Bosnia-Hercegovina.
Forwards Hugo Almeida and Danny, who likewise missed the final stages of the qualifying campaign, which saw Denmark win the group to book a direct berth at next summer's finals, have also been drafted in to face the Bosnians at Zenica.
The return leg is four days later in Lisbon.
"With the return of certain players who had been out with injury, we now have a wider range of options," Bento told reporters after unveiling his 23-man squad.
