Prediction

  • Gil Vicente come into this game on the back of two wins in a row and are now in a more comfortable position. Last weekend they beat Farense in the Algarve after a confident display.
  • Sporting also come into this game on the back of two consecutive wins, neither of which were easy to come by despite being played at home. After beating a vulnerable Boavista 3-2 last weekend, they only managed to knock Santa Clara out of the Portuguese Cup in extra time last Thursday.
  • Fatigue could play a factor here, as Sporting had less time to prepare for this match and also had to play 120 minutes last Thursday. On top of that, they're dealing with injury woes which gives Gil Vicente hopes on getting something from Sunday' match.
