Sporting vs Benfica Soccer Prediction for Today
Sporting and Benfica saved for the final days the decision regarding their classification
If it is true that both teams would like to be one step away from the title, it is actually the second place that appears as a realistic prize for both, taking into account that FC Porto is just one point away from securing the NOS League.
The second place, however, is premium enough attractive for these sets. On the one hand you have the money from the Champions League on the horizon, which benefiting one of the teams, pushes the other to a season in the Europa League, where the possible gains are much smaller.
On the other hand, being in third place may be the missing point for each of these teams to think about reshaping their technical lead in what a revolutionary this might come to have.
Sporting come six consecutive victories, not losing since they faced Atletico in Madrid. Won the colchonera team in Lisbon, eliminated FC Porto from the Portuguese Cup in the tiebreaker for penalties and won four matches of Liga NOS, allowing him the proximity to the incarnates, who in this period of four meetings, lose at home to the Dragons, greatly weakening the chances of being champions, returning to lose to Tondela, in an unexpected defeat that modifies the state of mind with which the team visits Alvalade.
The two players still have a lot of doubts to answer, such as the eventual return of Piccini and William Carvalho in Sporting, while in the incarnated Jonas is the number one issue, given that it has been one of the most noticeable absentees of recent weeks.
From the options of each coach you can get a different reading of what we can expect from the game, but the most natural is that Jorge Jesus and Rui Vitoria will play the game with the eleven next to what have been their usual choices.
Sporting vs Benfica Prediction:
For the moment of the team and to play at home, Sporting have the opportunity to win in a match that may help to give a more positive tone to the balance of the season.
