Our Right Betting Tips and Predictions for Sportingvs Farense
Sporting to Win to Nil
Two seasons ago when the visiting team was still part of the first division, the two teams met on two occasions. One match was played in Lisbon and the other in Faro, both ended with Sporting Lisbon winning 1-0.
The home team has done well in all the competitions it has participated in so far, such as the Portuguese league and the Champions League. It is likely that the predictions will be fulfilled and that the Lisbon team will take the first three points.
Under 2.5
Considering the difference between the two teams, the coach of the visiting team will likely opt for a defensive scheme. That way he will reduce the opponent’s advances but as a consequence, the team will lose offensive power.
In each of the last two matchups, there was only 1 goal. This time there will likely be the same amount or a couple of goals.
BTTS – No
Although a couple of seasons ago Farense was a first-division team, it did not score a single goal in the last h2h. Now that they are a second-division team, they will probably have even more trouble putting the ball in the net.
The Lions don’t usually concede many goals in the league, so we expect them to keep a clean sheet.
Sporting vs Farense Preview: The Reconquest Begins
Sporting
After two weeks without playing, the defending league cup champions will start the defense of their title. This will be a good way to keep up a good rhythm until the Portuguese league restarts.
The Lions should not relax in this group stage, as two other first-division teams can complicate some matches. Securing the three points against the weakest team in the group will be important to fight for the only Swedish team in the next phase.
Farense
So far, coach Vasco Faisca’s team has had a great season. In Portugal’s second division they are in second place with a wide lead over their nearest challengers and only 4 points off the lead.
They also reached the group stage of the Cup, however, they are the only second-division team in the group. The duels in this tournament will be important to prepare for next season, as Farense is doing very well for promotion.
