Primeira Liga
Sporting Lisbon continue to battle for the title shoulder to shoulder with Benfica, as they have the same number of points as their main competitor. After the emphatic 5-0 victory over Boavista, they extended their unbeaten streak in the league to 18 matches. Their home form is also impressive - 12 wins in 15 matches and nine consecutive matches without defeat at home.
Gil Vicente have been stable in their recent visitsThe guests are in the lower part of the table, but after their 1-0 victory over Farense, they are at a relatively safe distance from the relegation zone. They have not lost in their last three away games, and overall they have seven undefeated results in 15 visits. Although they have not beaten Sporting since 2019, the previous match between the two teams ended 0-0, showing that they can put up a fight.
Prediction: Gil Vicente +2.5 goalsSporting are undoubtedly the favorites, but Gil Vicente have shown signs of stability in their recent away games. Considering the goalless draw in their previous match and the fact that the guests have not suffered heavy defeats in their last three visits, it seems reasonable to trust the handicap in their favor.
