 Porto |
|  Sporting CP |
Betting suggestion:
This match has a great tendency to be open, as Porto is going through a very positive stage and Sporting wants to continue in the fight for the first position. In this way, we believe that FC Porto will dominate much of the match and creates the best opportunities, however, quick transitions should create several problems for the visiting team. Given this, and given the importance of this match for both teams, risking a match with a few goals is a good option.

Sporting comes for this match after a home win against Moreirense by 1-0, but the goal appeared in the final minutes. Note that the lions aren’t going through a moment of great confidence, having recorded 5 victories in the last 10 matches played in several competitions. In this away match, the coach Jorge Jesus should keep his squad in 4-4-2 privileging the defensive organization and the counterattacks, exploiting the best space in the defense of FC Porto. It’s worth mentioning that forward Bas Dost is Sporting's top scorer with 20 scored goals. The defensive line has been one of the weaknesses of the green and white team. For this match, the coach won’t count on Gelson Martins and Petrovic, both punished, neither on Podence, this due to injury.
