Sporting CP-Benfica is a match valid for the 16th day of Liga Portugal and is played on Sunday at 9:30 pm: likely lineups, prediction, live TV and streaming.
Ahead of everyone in the Portuguese league are the usual three teams. Benfica, Sporting and Porto. In short, the championship in those parts is always their thing and this year they will really play it to the end since they are packed in very few points and every week something could happen. Yes, very exciting, especially for the fans of the three formations involved.
And on Sunday night there is a huge big match: Sporting, only one point behind their all-time rivals, hosts Benfica dreaming of overtaking them. The best attack in the league, that of the hosts dragged by a Giokeres who may also be on his last outings in a Lusitanian jersey, against the best defense, that of the guests, who over the course of fifteen games have taken only eight goals. Two fewer than their opponents. And since, as a rule, championships are won by the teams that concede the least, Benfica appears to be favored but slightly. Of course, the championship is long there is just the scent of overtaking in Sunday night’s derby.
Although Sporting is not having a beautiful moment – a draw in the last league outing and passing the round in overtime in the national cup – in these matches the hosts almost transform and always show that they have what it takes for the breakthrough. Two wins and a draw in the last three encounters at the Alvalade. So yes, the favorites are the hosts.
