Two of Portugals top three lock horns together in this game as FC Porto look to extend their unbeaten start to the season, can Sporting Lisbon upset the Dragons here or would they fall to a second loss in the league this season?
Sporting would be worried about their terrible record in this fixture over the years as they trail the host by 5 points heading into this match. A defeat here would end their hopes of winning the league title and would also be a major blow to their chances of making it to next season’s Champions League.
Porto have 10 wins from their last 11 league matches and they have won 9 of their last 11 encounters with Sporting over the years, this game looks likely to end in another home win for them.
The Dragons beat Sporting in the Portuguese Cup recently and with Sporting winning just 3 of their last 7 away games in the league, it is hard to see them stopping Porto here.
Tiquinho has scored 8 goals in his last 6 games including the winner against Sporting when they last met, he could be the difference maker in this game.
A home win for FC Porto is our tip for this game.
