Betting on Chaves
Chaves drew 0-0 in its most recent Primeira Liga match against Vizela. This is the fourth draw the team has reached in six matches so far in 2023, and also, the first clean sheet the team has recorded this year.
Although Chaves has been an inconsistent team, its numbers are not too bad. The team has recorded six wins, eight draws and six defeats in 20 matches, and it is sitting right in the middle of the standings with 26 points. It has not lost in its last two home games and, in fact, it has recorded only one loss in its last five.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Paulo Vítor; Bruno Langa, Steven Vitória, Carlos Ponck, Habib Sylla; Joao Pedro, Joao Mendes; Euller, Joao Teixeira, Bernardo Sousa; Juninho Vieira
Betting on Sporting Lisbon
Sporting Lisbon played an intense midweek Europa League round of 32 match against Midtjylland, and it reached a draw on the hour. Not having lost that game could be motivation enough for the team to face this new match, but it must be remembered that Sporting has not won in its last two appearances in all competitions.
In the Primeira Liga, things have been smooth sailing, and the team is currently in fourth place in the standings with 38 points attained after 12 wins, two draws and six defeats. The team lost its most recent league match by a score of 1-2 against Porto, ending its four-match undefeated streak.
However, it still has a positive away record as it has not lost in its last three matches in all competitions, with a 1-0 win over Rio Ave in its last league visit.
Probable lineup (3-4-2-1): Antonio Adán; Gonçalo Inácio, Sebastián Coates, Matheus Reis; Héctor Bellerín, Manuel Ugarte, Pedro Gonçalves, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku; Marcus Edwards, Francisco Trincao; Youssef Chermiti.
JefeBet Prediction
The numbers are clear, and Sporting Lisbon is ahead of its opponents. If both teams play at the level they have been playing throughout the campaign, it is likely that the victory will go to the visiting team, as it has been the case in the last two meetings between the two institutions at Chaves’ home.
Prediction: Sporting Lisbon wins by a score of 2-1.
