In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 4 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first.

Sporting comes to this match very motivated by a 2-0 home win over rival FC Porto: Slimani scored 2 goals in this match and gave coach Jorge Jesus’s team the win and the lead in the league. Sporting should once again play in a 4-4-2 formation, with Slimani and Montero in front. The away team is aware of the quality of the home team, but they come confidant and will try to take advantage of the great form moment of Ruiz and Slimani to beat Vitória de Setúbal.

Confirmed Lineup: Rui Patrício, João Pereira, Paulo Oliveira, Naldo, Jefferson, João Mário, William Carvalho, Bruno César, Adrien Silva, Islam Slimani, Bryan Ruiz.
Coach: R. Amorim.
