📋 Team News: Sporting Lisbon

Geovany Quenda (Metatarsal fracture), Zeno Debast (Knee injury), Eduardo Quaresma (Facial fracture), Pedro Gonçalves (Muscle injury), Ricardo Mangas (unknown injury) and Nuno Santos (Patellar tendon rupture) are unavailable for Sporting Lisbon boss Rui Borges.

We think that Sportinguistas should opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation, beginning the first half with Rui Silva, Georgios Vagiannidis, Ousmane Diomande, Goncalo Inacio, Matheus, Joao Simoes, Hidemasa Morita, Geny Catamo, Trincao, Alisson Santos and Luis Suarez.

🗞️ Team News: Casa Pia

Out of a mainly healthy group, there’s only the one fitness issue for the Casa Pia manager Gonçalo Brandão to be concerned with. Clau Mendes (sprain) won’t be playing here.

We reckon that Os Gansos (The Geese) might play in a 4-2-3-1 system, starting Patrick Sequeira, Abdu Conte, Jose Fonte, David Sousa, Gaizka Larrazabal, Rafael Brito, Renato Nhaga, Jeremy Livolant, Yassin Oukili, Kelian Wa Saka and Cassiano.

💡 Prediction

In our view, Sporting Lisbon will most probably stay in control for long periods of time and should be able to convert a few of the chances that they create.

At the same time, Casa Pia won’t find it easy getting goals although we do think it’s probable that they will be pulling one back during this clash, too.

Accordingly, we see a fairly comfortable 3-1 win for Sporting Lisbon at the conclusion of the game.
