ℹ️ Team News: Sporting Lisbon
Pedro Gonçalves (Muscle injury) and Antonio Adán (Muscle injury) won’t be able to feature for Sporting Lisbon gaffer Rúben Amorim.
It’s our opinion that Sportinguistas will possibly go for a 3-4-3 formation for this game with Franco Israel, Matheus, Sebastian Coates, Ousmane Diomande, Geny Catamo, Morten Hjulmand, Hidemasa Morita, Nuno Santos, Trincao, Viktor Gyoekeres and Paulinho.
ℹ️ Team News: Boavista
Boavista manager Ricardo Paiva has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. César (unknown injury) and Augusto Dabó (unknown injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.
We reckon that As Panteras could decide to begin the game with a 3-4-3 lineup using Joao Goncalves, Rodrigo Abascal, Filipe Ferreira, Chidozie Awaziem, Pedro Malheiro, Sebastian Perez, Gaius Makouta, S. Onyemaechi, Salvador Agra, Robert Bozenik and Miguel Reisinho.
💭 Prediction
In this game, Sporting Lisbon have it within them to stay in control for long periods of time and should be able to convert a few of the chances that they create.
Conversely, Boavista could well struggle to get shooting opportunities although we do see them converting at least once here.
Accordingly, we see a decent 3-1 margin for Sporting Lisbon when the full-time whistle blows.
