Team News

Sporting
Moreirense
  • Other than St. Juste, Rúben Amorim will have a full squad to pick from.
  • Paulinho was named forward of the month and will likely be boosted here.
  • Kodisang is doubtful, which could give Infande a chance to start.
  • Rodrigo Macedo is back available and could start upfront, although André Luís will likely lead the line here.

Prediction

  • Sporting CP were unable to keep the lead and ended up losing the first points of the season to SC Braga before the break. They will look to return to winning ways in order to keep 1st place.
  • Moreirense FC lost to SC Braga last time around after being 2-1 up. They fell in stoppage time, but were able to have a wonderful display against a title contender, which should serve as an warning for Sporting CP.
  • The visitors had already made things difficult for FC Porto and could actually trouble Sporting CP, especially if Rúben Amorim' men have their minds on their UEFA Europa League match. Nonetheless, the hosts are expected to win, even if by a narrow margin.
