Prediction

  • Sporting kept up their goalscoring form in the last round, beating Farense 5-0 a week after crushing Nacional 6-1. Gyokeres, Pote and Trincão have combined perfectly and are a threat to any defence.
  • FC Porto seem to have improved a lot with the arrival of Vítor Bruno as head coach and have been playing at a high level. So far they've picked up three convincing wins in the three games they've played, managing to settle the games in the first half.
  • Both teams have already met this season, with FC Porto pulling off an epic 4-3 win after trailing 3-0 to secure the Super Cup. With that in mind, you can expect them to be confident of repeating the feat. Still, playing in Alvalade could help Sporting, who could come out on top this time.
