After coming from two goals behind to share the spoils with Porto, Sporting CP will look to return to winning ways when they face Portimonense in Lisbon on Saturday.
The Lions are on the right track to regain the trophy and they are seen as hot favourites to beat O Portimao at Estadio Jose Alvalade. Ruben Amorim can’t count on suspended midfielder Marcus Edwards, while Matheus Reis remains in the recovery room.
Portimonense, on the other hand, are fighting tooth and nail to avoid relegation. O Portimao failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to Moreirense at the weekend and given Sporting CP’s 100% home record (15-0-0), we do not believe that the underdogs are capable of claiming a major scalp in Lisbon.
In their last meeting at the venue Sporting CP defeated Portimonense 4-0 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. To make things even worse for the away team, defender Goncalo Costa misses out through suspension.

Recommended Pick: Sporting to Win.
