Scoreless in 45 minutes Thursday
Wood took one shot (zero on goal) and generated one scoring chance over 45 minutes of play in Thursday's UEFA Europa League visit to Porto.
Analysis: Wood completed the first half of the UEL quarterfinals opening leg, marking his return to first-team activity following his six-month absence due to a knee injury. He was replaced by Igor Jesus, who should now be his main positional competitor while both Lorenzo Lucca and Taiwo Awoniyi are relegated in the depth chart. The experienced striker will look to see his playing time gradually increased in upcoming weeks and should have chances to add to his season tally of three goals in 10 appearances across all competitions.
Starting vs Porto
Wood (knee) is in the starting lineup for Thursday's Europa League match against Porto.
Analysis: Wood will not only be part of the squad here, but he's going to start and lead the way in this contest. This is Wood's first game since Oct. 18, so it wouldn't be surprising if he has some limitations in terms of his playing time.
