Prediction

  • Sporting will be full of confidence after coming from behind to beat Sturm Graz in midweek. Rúben Amorim’s side have only drawn one of their first 6 games
  • Rio Ave FC heads into Monday after back-to-back 1-1 draws against Casa Pia AC and FC Famalicão. Luís Freire's men have conceded in each of their last 4 matches and will need to improve as they'll deal with a ferocious opponent upfront.
  • Sporting CP defeated Rio Ave in each of their last 4 matches and will look to extend their run on Monday as they look to end this fixture at the top of the table. Playing at home and with a better team, they'll probably be successful.
