Betting on Portimonense
Portimonense have had a campaign with an irregular performance that has them positioned in the twelfth position of the standings with 26 points. Although they may be able to move up a few places, the series of results they have achieved does not suggest that they will be able to do so.
They were defeated 1-0 by Famaliçao during their last game, and have alternated between wins and losses in their four most recent matches in the domestic league. However, at home they have not lost in 3 matches, taking 7 of the 9 possible points.
Probable lineup (5-3-2): Kosuke Nakamura, Fahd Moufi, Pedrao, Lucas, Ji-Su Park, Filipe Relvas, Lucas Ventura, Pedro Miguel Cunha Sa, Mauricio, Bryan Rochez, Rui Pedro Riberio Fernandes Duarte Gomes.
Betting on Sporting Lisbon
Unlike its rival, Sporting Lisbon is located in the top 5 of the standings, specifically in fourth position with 44 points. In this position, they will qualify for the Conference League next season, although the visiting team will surely be aiming for a place in the next Champions League.
Seven points away from second place (which would give them a place in Europe’s most important club-level tournament), their intention is to continue with the series of good results they have achieved in their last games. They are undefeated in the last 4 games, winning 3 of them, considering all competitions.
It has not performed well when playing on other teams’ fields in the Primeira Liga, winning 5 of the 11 matches played (in addition to 2 draws and 4 defeats).
Probable lineup (3-4-3): Antonio Adán; Jeremiah St. Louis; Jeremiah St. Louis. Juste, Sebastian Coates, Matheus Reis; Héctor Bellerín, Pedro Goncalves, Hidemasa Morita, Nuno Santos; Marcus Edwards, Paulinho, Trincao.
JefeBet Prediction
Sporting Lisbon is the favorite to win this match, not only because of their great form, but also because of the good results they have obtained against this rival. The first round match ended with a 4-0 win, marking the fourth consecutive victory.
Moreover, they have lost only one of their seven most recent away games in all competitions, beating Midtjylland in the Europa League the last time they had to travel away from home.
Therefore, it is expected that this trend will continue to extend in this new match of match day 23, and thus continue to stalk the qualifying places for the most important tournaments.
Prediction: Asian Handicap of Sporting Lisbon (POR 0-2 SPO).
