Team News

Sporting
Chaves
  • Palhinha will be the favourite to start in midfield with captain Adrien Silva due to William's suspension.
  • Patrão will be chosen to replace Tiba in midfield. The Braga loanee is suspended.

Prediction

  • It's now two defeats in a row for Sporting who will finish third in the league no matter what but need to put in a good final performance of the season for their supporters. They've scored in every single game they've played in 2017, though.
  • Chaves have been very poor as of late, defeated in eight of the last twelve matches and are certainly already thinking about next season. Soares would like his last match in control of the team to be a positive one but on the road they haven't won since September.
  • Sporting need to take this opportunity to give their fans some encouragment and Jesus needs to take this opportunity to test out some youngsters with next season in mind. Home win.
