Portimonense vs Sporting Lisbon Prediction

Sporting's season has fallen below expectations, with their inconsistency seeing them out of the running for the league title.

However, Ruben Amorim's side have hit a purple patch in recent weeks, with their four-game unbeaten run putting them back in the race for a top-three finish. They are also through to the Round of 16 in the UEFA Europa League.

Portimonense, meanwhile, have won their last two games in front of their fans, which could spur them to register a shock win over their more illustrious visitors.
