Though they have lost their goalscoring touch in recent games, defensively they have been very solid. The visitors have scored the least goals of any team in the competition.Given the form of both sides and Sporting's success at home this season, a win for the home team looks like the most likely outcome.Prediction: Sporting 2-0 Belenenses
